Welcome to the collection of images dedicated to the theme of captives. Captives are individuals who are under the control of a force, which determines their existence in conditions different from the usual. In this collection, you will find photographs depicting various aspects of captivity, their environment, as well as architectural elements related to places of detention.

The images may capture different types of camps where captives are held: from strictly guarded facilities to less formalized conditions. You will also see the surrounding landscape, which, depending on the geographical location, can vary from desert expanses to wooded areas or urban scenes.

The objects in the photographs often include:

Structures: buildings and constructions that serve as places of confinement, such as barracks, prisons, and secured perimeters with barbed wire.
Equipment: security elements like cameras, guards, as well as items used by captives in their daily lives.
Human Figures: the captives themselves in various postures, their interactions with each other and with the guards, providing insight into their lives and conditions.

Depending on the time of year, captives may be captured in various climatic conditions, from snowfalls to scorching sun, reflecting a diversity of survivable conditions. The change of seasons may also highlight shifts in nature, which, in turn, emphasizes the contrast between freedom and restrictions.

This collection of images is an excellent resource for those interested in the historical, social, or cultural aspects related to this topic. Each photo in our archive is available entirely for free and can be used for educational or research purposes. Immerse yourself in this unique visual world and discover the complexity of human existence under captivity.
