"An image that became synonymous with the Spanish Civil War and catapulted the photographer Robert Capa to fame is a fake, new research has confirmed."

"The Falling Soldier, showing a Spanish fighter apparently frozen in the moment of his death, was published by Life magazine in 1937. The caption read: 'Robert Capa’s camera captures the instant when a Spanish soldier is shot in the head by a bullet on the Cordoba front'."

"Capa, who died in 1954 aged 40, always insisted that it was not fake, but its authenticity has long been questioned."

Indeed, the "Falling Soldier" iconic image the subject of controversy for many decades. The jury has been out during the period yea or nay but now the verdict and final word has been announced. See the wiki entry for "Falling Soldier".
