"VJ Day in Time Square"

Hi again!!! In many social networks you can see pictures of couples, people kissing to their girlfriend or boyfriend showing their love, but there is a photograph older and more symbolic... In this picture you can see a young sailor kissing to a unknown nurse because he was very very happy for the end of the Second World War. This photograph was taken in august 14th of 1945 for a  prussian photographer called Alfred Eisenstaedt.
The story of this picture is very interesting, there was a young sailor near of the subway in New York who listened the good news about the surrender of Japan, he felt very pleased so he ran and looked to a young nurse, she smiled his and he hug to the lady and kisses her...  Alfred Eisenstaedt got close to the improvise couple and took the photograph what was published in the magazine "Life", Eisenstaedt never knew the names of the sailor or the nurse, there are people that say to be part of the historic couple, even now it doesn´t clear but apparently their names were George Mendosa and Greta Friedman (is not sure)
I like this picture because it symbolize a moment oh happiness, euphoria and hope... and it shows the party of a pair of youngs for the end of an horrible period!!
