Format:Hardcover
One wonders whether the master himself was fully satisfied with the odd choice of dust jacket.
The US version of this stunning tome sports a poo-brown jacket with a 70's style red letraset font.
But, I forgive this misdemeanour, for the book is a most joyous celebration of that most brilliant of photographers. Along with a recent acquisition of Eugene Atget's catalogue (in book form I hasten to add), this new addition to my library exhibits a lustrous catalogue of duo-tone plates (hand picked by the maestro himself, no less)and I think should be buried with me when I too shuffle off this mortal coil.
Until that day I will luxuriate in this splendidly printed treasure trove of wondrous images.
I have exhausted all my superlatives!

Beautiful overview of one of the Masters of last century photography.
Composition was his qualifier, here you can learn from Bresson.

Beautiful!

Format:Hardcover
This is a beautiful book of duotones of Cartier-Bresson's work. It features the most famous photographs Henri has ever photographed and because it was excellently printed, you can truly feel the images with such intensity. This is a definite book to own if you love Henri's work.

Henri Cartier-Bresson Photographer
13 Sep 2007
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
Excellent!! Cartier-Bresson has got to be among the top 2 or 3 photographers in history. The book contains 155 images presented in a good large format perfect for viewing. You get all of the details. I can sit for hours slowly moving from photo to photo. I am a photographer. This book is teaching me so much about the decisive moment and moods as related to photography. I cannot say enough about the book. Every person interested in photography should have and study this book!!
