(and with all due respect to Doug) Though we remember Capa as a war photographer, his work was not that shallow or limited. A trip to the Magnum site and a click on a couple of the books there about Capa will yield about a thousand Capa images. (The site seems to still be a power-out casualty) There's a lot more than a common street-shooter at work!
