Che Guevara Canvas Print From 1960.
The day before Alberto Korda took his iconic photograph of Cuban revolutionary Che Guevara, a ship had exploded in Havana Harbor, killing the crew and dozens of dockworkers. Covering the funeral for the newspaper Revolución, Korda focused on Fidel Castro, who in a fiery oration accused the U.S. of causing the explosion. The two frames he shot of Castro’s young ally were a seeming afterthought, and they went unpublished by the newspaper. But after Guevara was killed leading a guerrilla movement in Bolivia nearly seven years later, the Cuban regime embraced him as a martyr for the movement, and Korda’s image of the beret-clad revolutionary soon became its most enduring symbol.
✨ Che Guevara Trivia:
★ Executed by the Bolivian army in 1967 (aided by CIA advisers)
★ Che Guevara has been the subject of a number of films, including “The Motorcycle Diaries,” which was based in part on Che's own account of his nine-month journey across South America in 1951–52, an experience that shaped his leftist beliefs.
✨ Che Guevara Quotes:
"Real revolutionaries adorn themselves on the inside, not on the surface"
"I am not a liberator. Liberators do not exist. It exists when people liberate themselves"
