Henri Cartier-Bresson: L’Imaginaire d’après Nature

Henri Cartier-Bresson: L’Imaginaire d’après Nature

Exhibition of photos by Henri Cartier-Bresson, always delightful in my humble opinion.

Henri Cartier-Bresson's wonderful photo of young boy with wine

Henri Cartier-Bresson (1908-2004) – a master of his genre.Everyone must have seen at least one photo by this well known and well-respected photographer – clever, artistic, and timeless.

Thinking of when HCB (as he’s known by the French) was doing his best photography, there were no electronic gadgets or the internet, or special software to help him create his masterpieces.
