Brother and sister reunited
This unattributed photograph shows a brother and a sister being reunited after three years of separation. The siblings are in the centre of the image, he wearing a uniform, and she wearing what looks like festive clothing. They hold hands. The people around them, a mix of soldiers and civilians, smile broadly. The soldiers are from the Kampuchea United Front for National Salvation (KUFNS, also known as FUNSK) [Front or Renakse]. This image was featured in the publication (French and English versions) The People’s Republic of Kampuchea (1979). This photograph is part of the collection held by the Agence Khmère de Presse (AKP) and Cambodia’s Ministry of Information. This collection, which documents the early years of the People’s Republic of Kampuchea as photographed by the Vietnamese and a small team of Cambodian photographers, has not yet been classified or indexed.

Commercial street in Sihanoukville by night
This unattributed photograph shows a lit building and a commercial street in Sihanoukville city centre by night. The upper floors of the two-story building at the corner are private homes. The ground floor appears to be a restaurant. The photograph is part of the collection that was donated to the National Archives of Cambodia from the Library of the Royal University of Fine Arts by Darryl Collins and Helen Grant Ross in 2003. The collection was used by Collins and Ross for their research into urbanisation. The images were probably originally used to mount the Sangkum Reastr Niyum Permanent Exhibition at the Exhibition Hall, Bassac area, Phnom Penh. This specific photograph was used as an illustration to an article entitled “The seaport of Sihanoukville was a vital necessity for the kingdom” by Jacques Fabre in the monthly pictorial Kambuja, no. 4 (15 June 1965): 65.

總奮起
這幅木刻畫出自鉄鷹之手,於《中華畫報》2.2(1944年3月)重製。木刻畫對日據中國藝術的重要性在文學幾乎被全然忽視。木刻畫迄今幾乎特指中國反抗的藝術,儘管該風格屬於戰爭期間重要的「日佔」視覺文化。就這幅畫來言,當中中國男子身穿新國民制服並揮舞中華民國國旗,衝向看不見的敵軍,乍看就像抗戰早期的木刻畫。
