Henri Cartier-Bresson: Paris Revisited by Anne de Mondenard and Agnes Sire

Henri Cartier-Bresson was -the eye of the 20th century and one of the worlds most acclaimed photographers. Paris was his home, on and off, for most of his life -1908-2004. The photographs he took of the city and its people manage to be both dreamlike and free of affectation. Here are around 160 photographs taken over a more than fifty-year career. Mostly in black and white, this selection reveals the strong influence on Cartier-Bresson of pioneering documentary photographer Eugene Atget -1857-1927, and the clear visual links with Surrealism that infused Cartier-Bressons early pictures.
