DEL PINO, Alberto. Connection between photography and other types of iconography of the Paraguayan War. Folia [online]. 2016, n.25, pp.133-158. ISSN 0325-8238.

This work aims to establish some connections between photography and other types of iconography (such as oil, aquarelle, gravure, lithography, xylography, etc.) built by the armed conflict. This article is entirely illustrated and provides different investigations from diverse public files as well as private collections from Argentina, Paraguay, Brazil, and Uruguay. It gathers various iconography of war related material, both published and unpublished (books, articles, monographs and papers) work. Some hypothesis have been made regarding the current absence of an adequate photography inventory, propitiated by the dispersion of the original collections or the slight investigations that took place in the public files where the materials are. Most of the photographies do not have significant data about them and that limits their proper identification and an adequate classification in the repositories where are preserved. One of the aspects to highlight is the confusion regarding the identity of the characters portrayed in the photography. This illustrates the lack of evidence that exists in the material incorporation stage to its final reservoir.
