Londonderry, Northern Ireland

 Zoom  

During the Northern Ireland riots in 1971, Don McCullen, working for the 'The Sunday Times Magazine' was assigned to cover Londonderry. This black and white photograph is one of three shots taken within moments of each other, which were later published as a sequence. This moving document illustrates a police assault under the gaze of terrified civilians in the intimate neighborhood of Londonderry.
