Description

Henri Cartier-Bresson (1908-2004) is probably the most influential, admired and respected figure in the history of photography. His early work helped define the creative potential of modern photography, and his unerring ability to capture life on the run made his work synonymous with 'the decisive moment' - the title of his first major book.
