This image displays a framed, monochromatic front page of the Mexican newspaper "EXCELSIOR," dated Wednesday, September 12, 1973. The primary headline states, "Allende se Suicidó; Se Negó a Dimiter Tras del Cuartelazo" (Allende committed suicide; He refused to resign after the coup). A large central black and white photograph depicts Salvador Allende, identified below the image, wearing glasses, a suit, and a tie, with a telephone receiver held to his left ear. The newspaper's articles detail the 1973 Chilean coup d'état, explicitly referencing events in Santiago, Chile, on September 11, 1973. One article mentions the bombing of La Moneda Palace in Santiago and describes the discovery of President Allende's body with a head wound. Additional smaller black and white photographs include a street scene with a few individuals and an obscured background, and a separate image of a crowd of people gathered outdoors. At the bottom right, another photograph shows Salvador Allende, in glasses and a suit, positioned among a group of men, some in military uniforms and others in civilian attire. The newspaper's content also covers the establishment of an anti-communist military junta and various international reactions to the coup in Chile.
