Nicknamed 'the eye of the nation' for his style and the narrative ability of his reportages, Dmitri Baltermants distinguished himself for his famous photographs of the battle of Stalingrad and, in the post-war period, for many reports with which he documented the developments in the Soviet Union with epic but not rhetorical images.
