Details: This poster shows the black and white picture of a sailor kissing a nurse on the street. At the bottom it says War's End Kiss. Times Square, New York City, V-J Day - 14 August 1945, Photograph by Victor Jorgensen .
One of the most famous photographs ever published by Life Magazine was shot in Times Square on V-J Day, taken by Alfred Eisenstaedt. The kiss from another angle (pictured here), photograph taken by Lt. Victor Jorgenson. Some dozen ex-sailors have claimed to be the amorous seaman and at least two other former nurses have identified themselves as his partner. Life accepted nurse Edith Cullen Shain's claim to this honor.
