Invasion 68: Prague is a photography book shot by Josef Koudelka. The photo series was set in August 1968 when Warsaw Pact tanks invaded the city of Prague to end the Prague Spring period. This was a duration (January 5th to August 21, 1968) of political liberalization in Czechoslovakia during the era of Soviet Union’s domination after World War II. After a Romanian gypsies photoshoot, Koudelka returned the day before the turmoil. In the midst of the Soviet-led invasion, he took a series of photographs to document the historical scenario. Somehow, the photos were smuggled out of the country without sanctions.
