Henri Cartier-Bresson
Photofile
Henri Cartier-Bresson (1908–2004) studied painting before taking up photography in his early twenties. One of the founders of the photography agency Magnum (together with Robert Capa and others), he is best known for the consummate skill with which he captured the most fleeting of scenes.
This volume includes selections from his photographs of France, Spain, America, India, Russia, Mexico and pre-revolutionary China. Introduced by Michael Bresson, it show clearly how, for Cartier-Bresson, art is an expression of common humanity. PHOTOFILE brings together the best work of the world’s greatest photographers, in an attractive format and at an easily affordable price. Handsome and collectable, the books are produced to the highest standards. Each volume contains some sixty full-page reproductions printed in superb duotone, together with a critical introduction and a full bibliography. The series has been awarded the first annual prize for distinguished photographic books by the International Center of Photography, New York.
