  An international jury has met in Holland every year since 1955 under the auspices of the World Press Foundation to choose the year's finest press photographs, in an event recognized as the definitive competition for photojournalism. The best international press photos from an eventful, strife-torn year are assembled here for the 38th contest in the series. More than 15,000 images sent in by press agencies, photographers and publications worldwide have been sifted to yield the very finest images that captured the events of 1994, from every part of the world and every aspect of human existence. Diverse, moving, sometimes harrowing, they reaffirm the photographic medium's critical importance as a mirror of the times.
