Description:
The enlarged negative strip of Alfred Eisenstaedt's famous image, "Children at a Puppet Theatre". Children reacting to the story of "Saint George and the Dragon," the moment the dragon is slain, at the Guignol puppet show, Parc de Montsouris in the Tuileries, Paris, France. Eisenstaedt said of this photograph, "It took a long time to get the angle I liked, but the best picture is the one I took at the climax of the action. It carries all the excitement of the children screaming, "The dragon is slain!" Very often this sort of thing is only a momentary vision, my brain does not register, only my eyes and finger react.  Click."
