What is the most famous photo ever taken?
What the most famous photo ever taken is is open to debate. However, several photographs that are highly recognizable and widely known could be contenders for the title. Among them are V-J Day in Times Square by Alfred Eisenstaedt, The Burning Monk by Malcolm Browne, Migrant Mother by Dorothea Lange, Tank Man by Jeff Widener, Earthrise by William Anders, Guerrillero Heroico by Alberto Korda and Raising the Flag on Iwo Jima by Joe Rosenthal.
