"A genius," "the greatest photographer of all time," "the eye of the century"... all the superlatives have been used to describe Henri Cartier-Bresson (1908-2004). Combining documentary quality and poetic vision, he created one of the most fascinating photographic works of the 20th century. After studying painting and associating with the Surrealists, he founded the Magnum Photos agency. From Mexico to Gandhi's India, from America to China, via Russia, he traveled the world, his Leica camera riveted to his eye.
