The Shaved Woman of Chartres (French: La Tondue de Chartres) is a black and white photograph taken by Robert Capa in Chartres on 16 August 1944. This picture was first published in Life magazine and became iconic of the épuration sauvage (wild purge) enacted after the liberation of France and the severe punishment imposed on the French women accused of so-called horizontal collaboration with the German occupiers.
