Henri Cartier-Bresson A Biography
Widely regarded as one of the most influential photographers of the twentieth century, Henri Cartier-Bresson transformed the way we see and understand the world through photography. From the Spanish Civil War and the Liberation of Paris to the political transformations of China, his photographs captured defining moments in history with an extraordinary sense of timing, observation, and humanity.
As a co-founder of Magnum Photos and a pioneer of the decisive moment, Cartier-Bresson also created intimate portraits of some of the century's most significant cultural figures, including Albert Camus, Jean-Paul Sartre, and William Faulkner.
Drawing on years of personal conversations with Cartier-Bresson, acclaimed biographer Pierre Assouline offers a rare insight into the photographer's life beyond the camera. From his early fascination with surrealism and lifelong dedication to drawing to his experiences of war and imprisonment, this biography reveals the experiences and ideas that shaped his remarkable vision.
An essential read for photographers and anyone interested in the relationship between photography, history, and the art of seeing.
