Henri Cartier-Bresson: Europeans

'Henri Cartier-Bresson - Photographe'r 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 double impression offset 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.
