Henri Cartier-Bresson (French, 1908 - 2004)

 
 
 
Follow this artist
This profoundly influential French photographer is widely considered the father of modern photojournalism, as he mastered the art of "real life reportage" and candid photography. His work has had a profound impact on subsequent generations of photographers, and his distinctive style continues to influence street photography. Cartier-Bresson achieved international renown for his coverage of Mahatma Ghandi's 1948 funeral, and the last stage of the Chinese Civil War which took place a year later.  Full CV
