Henri Cartier-Bresson is probably the greatest photographer of the 20th century. Since the 1920s he has roamed the streets of the world seeking that decisive moment when meaning and composition unite to make an image at once significant and beautiful.
Henri Cartier-Bresson: Photographer is the crowning publication of an illustrious career. The foreword by Yves Bonnefoy discusses Cartier-Bresson's creative process, and Cartier-Bresson himself selected all the images for this summation of his finest work.
Using the finest quality duotone printing and large-scale one-to-a-page presentation, all the famous photographs are here in these pages, alongside recent, less familiar work. In each classic image, the moment is eternal and compassion spills from the frame.
