The 6 January 1941 issue of Life magazine included a spread titled “Life Documents His New Novel with War Shots,” with photos by Robert Capa and Gerda Taro, the latter unattributed. Hemingway had left Spain before the battle dramatized in the novel—the Segovia Offensive—although Capa and Taro were there. See the photographs of the Segovia attack in the astonishing book The Mexican Suitcase. If you can find it, the March of Time newsreel “Rehearsal for War” of 6 Aug 1937 (volume 3, episode 13) features the battle.
