What is the title of Alfred Eisenstaedt’s famous V-J Day photograph in Times Square?

Alfred Eisenstaedt’s famous V-J Day photograph in Times Square is titled V-J Day in Times Square.

The photograph shows a U.S. Navy sailor kissing a woman in a white uniform during celebrations in New York City on August 14, 1945. Eisenstaedt photographed the spontaneous scene as crowds reacted to news that Japan had surrendered.

Life magazine published the image a week later in a large section devoted to victory celebrations. It became one of the most recognizable photographs associated with the end of World War II, although the identities and circumstances of the two people were disputed for decades.

The woman was later identified as Greta Zimmer Friedman, a dental assistant rather than a nurse. George Mendonsa was widely identified as the sailor, though debates about the image’s subjects continued. Victor Jorgensen photographed the same moment from another angle and titled his image Kissing the War Goodbye.
