Summary

Rationele

• The image is used to illustrate the way how sailors tried to process their loss, for reasons outside the sport and outside their influence, of an Olympic Game due to the 1980 Olympic boycott for what they worked for four years or longer. The significance of the picture is to help the reader grab the atmosphere of the situation in a way that words alone could not convey. For many sailors not going to the Olympics destroyed their (sailing) career.
• Its inclusion in the article adds significantly to the article because the photo and its historical significance are the object of discussion in the article.
