During the 1950s, Spain was under the dictatorship of Francisco Franco. The country in this period was also known as Francoist Spain. During Franco’s rule, Spain was officially neutral in World War II and remained largely economically and culturally isolated from the outside world. These 21 stunning color photographs below of Spain in the mid-1950s were taken by photographer Inge Morath.
