Vera Elkan
Vera Elkan (1908–2008) was a South African photographer who is remembered for her images of the International Brigades in the Spanish Civil War.
==Biography==
Of mixed South African and German parentage, Elkan trained as a photographer in Berlin in the 1930s and worked as a photographer in Germany and South Africa. While based in London, she received funding from the British campaign in support of the International Brigades to go to Spain to photograph the activities of the Brigades. She travelled by ambulance to Alabacete in December 1936 where she photographed German, French and British recruits at the training base. Other images cover international journalists, a Valencia hospital, blood transfusions and air-raid casualties in Madrid.〔(Hilary Roberts, "Vera Elkan" ), Luminous Lint. Retrieved 14 March 2013.〕 Her images also included shots of Mikhail Koltsov of ''Pravda'', Claud Cockburn of the ''Daily Worker'' and of the physician Norman Bethune.
Elkan later worked as a portrait photographer in London but her studio was destroyed in the war, together with the bulk of her work. After the war, she concentrated on family life.〔
