| About the image
Sawada braved going down to the riverside, which was under attack, to take the picture, and then wiped the youngest child's eyes when they reached his side. His widow tells that his evidence of the tragedies of war reached a wider audience after winning, but it also pressured him, and turned him taciturn.
