Do you know what the world's first photo was?

How can a single photograph come to define an era? Why do certain faces, gestures and moments stay in our collective memory long after the world around them has changed? Join Adam, a politics and history expert, for a journey through time in photographs: iconic images that many people across the Western world recognise at a glance. Behind each frame lies a larger story of people, power, conflict or change, and a moment that has helped shape how we remember the past.

Together, we’ll explore the history behind these photographs, discuss what made them so significant, and consider how they influence our understanding of the people and events they capture. What does the camera reveal, what does it leave out, and why do some images become lasting cultural reference points? Whether you recognise every photograph or are discovering them for the first time, no prior knowledge is necessary. You’ll leave knowing the images, understanding their stories, and with richer historical and cultural connections to bring into your next conversation.

一张照片怎么就能定义一整个时代？为什么有些面孔、手势和瞬间，明明周围的世界早就变了，却还是一直留在我们的集体记忆里？跟着 Adam 来一场照片里的时间之旅吧。他是政治和历史方面的专家。我们会看一些在西方世界很多人都一眼就能认出来的经典影像。每一张照片背后，都藏着一段更大的故事，关于人、权力、冲突或者改变，也藏着一个塑造了我们如何记住过去的瞬间。

我们会一起聊聊这些照片背后的历史，讨论它们为什么这么重要，也会想想它们怎么影响我们对照片里那些人和事的理解。镜头拍下了什么，又漏掉了什么？为什么有些画面会变成一直被人引用的文化坐标？不管你每张都认识，还是第一次见，都不需要提前做功课。结束后你会记住这些照片，了解它们的故事，还能带着更丰富的历史和文化谈资，用到下一次聊天里。
