[2015山东省实验中学高三第一次模拟考试] Three decades ago,Steve McCurry took arguably the most famous picture of all time. Yet even after all this time,the pho?tographer is filled with enthusiasm when he talks about Afghan Girl.
"I knew she had an incredible look,a sharp gaze,"he recalls. "It was before the digital camera and with the big crowd and dust all around* you never knew what would happen with the film. When I developed the picture,I knew it was special. I showed it to the editor of the Na?tional Geographic,and he jumped to his feet and shouted, 'That's our next cover.”,
Not only did Afghan Girl become the magazine's next cover,but the most successful in its famous history. The striking portrait of 12-year-old Sharbat Gula,in a ref?ugee camp,was taken in December 1984 and published the following year.
When McCurry reflects upon its popularity,what ex?cites him most is the impact that this single image has had on the real world.
"People volunteered to work in the refugee camps be?cause of that photograph,"he says. "Afghans are incredi?bly proud of it,as the girl is poor but shows great pride,strong will and self-respect. It drew attention to then poor situation,and inspired a lot of people. ” It also led the National Geographic to set up the' Afghan Children's Fund―and meant that to this day,McCurry is never charged a fare by appreciative Afghan taxi drivers.
The portrait forms the centrepiece of a major exhibi?tion of McCurry's work,which opened recently in Monza,Italy,and will run until 6 April. The famous photograph is just one of thousands of extraordinary pictures that McCurry has taken over a 40-year career during which he has won dozens of awards. For many years,frontline war photography like this was McCurry's stock-in-trade. In?deed,it enabled him to make his name.
