Henri CARTIER BRESSON
Henri Cartier-Bresson (1908 – 2004) was a French humanist photographer considered a master of candid photography, arguably the most significant photographer of the twentieth-century, and one of the founding members of Magnum Photos. He pioneered the genre of street photography, and viewed photography as capturing a decisive moment. As an early user of 35mm film, Cartier-Bresson's humane, spontaneous photographs helped establish photojournalism as an art form. He brought a new aesthetic and practice to photography, initiated modern photojournalism, and influenced countless followers.
