Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Rooftop Watchers, Sino-Japanese War, Shanghai. George Talbot and his wife Gralia.

From an interview of Sam Tata by John K. Grande in 1988:

"My first good photograph is my friend George Talbot and his Russian wife Gralia on a rooftop watching the bombing of Shanghai by Japanese planes in 1937. The International Settlement and the Concession française were not in danger at the time. The Chinese outside these zones were in great danger and some of them came into the safe zones. There's another picture I took of a man lying down with all his things around him who had just entered the safety of the International Settlement. By 1941 nobody was safe. The Japanese just came in." [1]

Français : George Talbot et sa femme Gralia, sur un toit de Hart Road, dans la Concession internationale de Shanghai, regardent avec des jumelles le bombardement de Shanghai par des avions japonais en 1937.

Extrait d'une entrevue de Sam Tata par John K. Grande en 1988, traduite de l'anglais par Monique Crépault, publiée dans le magazine Vie des Arts, Montréal, automne 1997, vol. 41, no 168, pages 26 à 29 :

«Ma première bonne photo est celle d'amis, George Talbot et Gralia, sa femme russe, sur un toit de Hart Road, alors qu'ils regardaient avec des jumelles le bombardement de Shanghaï par des avions japonais en 1937. La zone internationale et la concession française n'étaient pas en danger alors. Mais ceux qui se trouvaient à l'extérieur de ces zones l'étaient. À partir de 1941, plus personne n'était en sécurité.» [2]
