The invention of the camera has undoubtedly changed the way we record history, allowing us to capture those fleeting moments and preserve the precious images of history forever.
Today, we will take you to review the last photos left by 4 celebrities in the last moments of their lives, which not only record their faces, but also reflect their life trajectories and the background of the times.
Among them, we see the helplessness of Chiang Kai-shek's hands tied to the chair with duct tape, and also see the exhaustion of Lenin paralyzed on the chair.
——【·Chiang Kai-shek】——»
Chiang Kai-shek's last photograph was taken on July 23, 1973, the day his grandson Chiang Hsiao-yong entered the palace of marriage.
However, the "Emperor of the Soil" on the island of Taiwan did not attend the wedding in person, but witnessed this festive moment in a special way in the hospital.
In the photo, Chiang Kai-shek sits in a chair with his hands taped to the handles, and despite his dignified posture, he cannot hide the pain he suffered from a car accident four years ago.
In Taiwan, Chiang Kai-shek's health has been the focus of attention. The 1969 car accident not only caused him serious bodily harm, but also kept him out of public for a long time since.
Rumors began to circulate on the island that he was critically ill, and the political situation became unstable. In this context, Song Meiling decided to use Jiang Xiaoyong's wedding to break these rumors. She carefully arranged this tea ceremony and had Chiang Kai-shek appear in front of the camera.
Chiang Kai-shek, dressed in a black horse coat and smiling, seems to show the world that his spirit is still strong. Behind this, however, was his declining physical condition – he had been unable to walk on his own since the crash.
In order to make Chiang Kai-shek look his best in the photo, Soong Meiling even asked the nurse to fix him to the chair with duct tape. The release of this photo did have the desired effect.
It dispels rumors that Chiang Kai-shek is critically ill, and it also allows the Taiwanese people to see the image of a leader who is still strong despite his serious injuries. However, this also became the last public photo of Chiang Kai-shek before his death.
On April 5, 1975, he died of a heart attack at his Shilin apartment in Taipei at the age of 88. Chiang Kai-shek's last photograph not only records the last moments of his life, but also an important witness in Taiwan's history.
It reflects Chiang Kai-shek's position in Taiwan and his far-reaching influence on Taiwan's political stability. Although he has been dead for many years, this photo and the story behind him are still remembered.
——【Kennedy】——»
November 22, 1963, is a day that will be remembered in American history. On this sunny day, John F. Kennedy, the 35th President of the United States, and his wife, Jacqueline, ride through the streets of the city of Dallas in an open-top car.
The Kennedys waved to the crowd around them, and the enthusiastic crowd responded positively to their enthusiasm. However, in the midst of this energetic and joyous scene, a tragedy is quietly approaching.
Kennedy was a charismatic leader who held a special place in the hearts of the American people. His leadership style and people-friendly image have won him widespread praise and affection.
Even years after his death, Kennedy's influence is still pervasive, with many places named after him in his honor. On that day, the Kennedys arrived in Texas to fight for re-election and resolve divisions within the Democratic Party.
They were fatally shot as they passed by Dealey Plaza in Dallas. The gunners fired three rounds in a row from concealment, two of which hit Kennedy with unerring accuracy.
The first bullet tore an artery in his neck, causing blood to gush out, while the second shot hit him directly in the back of the head, shattering part of his skull and landing on the back cover of the car.
Although the people at the scene had not fully recovered their senses, Kennedy had been rushed to the nearest hospital. However, after half an hour of hard work, the doctors reluctantly announced that the 46-year-old president was beyond salvage.
Kennedy's life came to an end at that moment, leaving the world with endless grief and nostalgia. Kennedy's wife, Jacqueline, was also present in this incident. She grabbed Kennedy's hand tightly at the time of the shooting, trying to give him strength.
However, in the face of such a sudden disaster, she could not prevent the tragedy from happening. During Kennedy's journey to the hospital, Jacqueline stayed by his side until the last moment of his life.
This event had a profound impact on the United States and the world. Kennedy's death has grieved countless people and strengthened the American people's pursuit of peace and justice.
His spirit will always inspire us to face life's difficulties and challenges bravely and strive for a better future.
——【Marilyn Monroe】——»
Marilyn Monroe, this name has a high reputation in the United States and even around the world. She is not only an outstanding actress in the history of American cinema, but also a symbol of charismatic women.
With her bold dress, wonderful figure and unique temperament, Monroe has become a sexy goddess in the minds of countless people. However, this beautiful woman died suddenly at the age of 36, leaving behind endless mysteries and regrets.
Monroe's life is full of legends. She was born in an ordinary family and has experienced all kinds of hardships since she was a child. However, it was these arduous experiences that shaped her resilient character.
After entering the showbiz, Monroe gradually emerged with her talent and hard work. She starred in films such as "The Seven Year Itch", "Bus Station", "Dragon and Phoenix", "Passion Like Fire", etc., all of which have become classics, and she has become the best actress in the world.
However, Monroe's life was not all smooth sailing. Her affair with US President John F. Kennedy caused her to fall into a storm of public opinion. This rumor made her famous, but it also caused her a lot of pressure.
Just when people were expecting her to create brilliance again, she died suddenly, which made people sigh. The cause of Monroe's death remains a mystery to this day. It was reported that she was found naked in her apartment lying on the bed, no longer breathing.
However, there are various theories about the cause of her death. Some said she died from an overdose, while others said she didn't have any residual drugs in her body. This kind of speculation makes the cause of Monroe's death even more confusing.
After Monroe's death, her last set of beach photos quickly sold out, which shows that her status in people's minds is still irreplaceable. However, what is even more shocking is that a crazy reporter sneaked into the morgue and took a posthumous photo of Monroe before she was cremated.
The vicissitudes of Monroe's face in the photo are in stark contrast to the beautiful image before his death, which makes people feel a lot of emotion. Although Monroe has been dead for many years, her influence remains.
Her works, her image, have left a deep impression on people's hearts. However, the cause of her death remains an unsolvable mystery.
Perhaps, this is the unique arrangement of fate for this peerless woman, making her an enigmatic figure forever and making people's memories of her more profound.
——[·Hitler·]——»
In the spring of 1945, the smoke of World War II was gradually dissipating, and the whole world was waiting for peace. However, at this historic turning point, Berlin was in shambles.
Allied artillery bombarded the city day and night, and the once thriving city was now in ruins. It was against such a chaotic backdrop that a photograph became a witness to history – the last photograph of Hitler before his suicide.
In the photograph, Hitler (right) and his adjutant Julius Schaub stand at the entrance to the bunker of the Chancellery in Berlin, their figures reflected in the ruins.
Ever since Germany suffered a heavy blow at Stalingrad, the once European power has been doomed to defeat. Hitler himself faded from public view after that.
Although the death of US President Franklin D. Roosevelt once gave him hope that the war might take a turn, as Berlin was constantly surrounded by the Soviet Red Army, Hitler finally understood that the war was irreparable.
On April 28, 1945, Hitler learned that his wartime ally Benito Mussolini had been captured and executed by partisans. On the same day, he learned that his deputy, Himmler, was attempting to negotiate with the Allies.
The news was like the last straw that crushed him, and Hitler felt that his end was near. So, he walked out of the bunker with his lieutenant and gazed at the city that had once belonged to him one last time.
Shortly before midnight, Hitler was married to his mistress, Eva Braun, in a bunker. Hitler, who fulfilled his last wish, committed suicide with Eva and left this world just a few hours later.
This photograph not only documents the end of Hitler's life, but also reflects the tragedy of that era. It reminds us that war brings not only the rise and fall of nations, but also the loss of countless lives and the shattering of families.
Hitler's story, and the last photograph he left behind, will forever serve as a reminder of the preciousness of peace and the cruelty of war.
