Sharbat Gula fue fotografiada cuando tenía 12 años por el fotógrafo Steve McCurry, en junio de 1984. Fue en el campamento de refugiados Nasir Bagh de Pakistán durante la guerra contra la invasión soviética. Su foto fue publicada en la portada de National Geographic en junio de 1985 y, debido a su expresivo rostro de ojos verdes, la portada se convirtió en una de las más famosas de la revista. Sin embargo, en aquel entonces nadie sabía el nombre de la chica, por lo que era conocida simplemente como la niña afgana. La foto volvió a la portada de la revista en una edición especial en noviembre de 2001.

  • this women doesnt seem happy about life. this is how islam destroys people, no respect for women.

  • Sharbat is an enchanting women... she should not of had to live her life in such fear and sadness. There are people on youtube that photoshop her picture, which is terrible and exploits her even more then she already has been. Wherever she is i hope she is in a peaceful place, and smiles every one in a while....

  • beautiful woman

  • Yes,just think.20 years ago she could be in America on Oprah then in Playboy ,then doing Arnold Schwart movies then Porn! Shes look the same then.Wore out!

  • After you see her now,you can see why they make her wear a vail 24/7!

  • she deserve some type of money wise help for all the fame she has gain over the years without her knowing.

  • @LelouMe

    He gave her a choice, she agreed to it. We should respect that.

  • I can barely look at her when she begins dropping her veil, to me it is like she feels exposed in a sexual way. She lives in a society were it is indecent to show a foreign man you face and IMO Steve McCurry should have respected that.

  • it's affecting me in unexplainable feeling.
