Product Description

This record of Cartier-Bresson's fascination with India over half a lifetime contains the very best of his photographs of that country, produced during six extended visits, the first at the time of Independence, the most recent in 1987. His images are shaped by an eye and a mind legendary for their empathy and for going to the heart of the matter. Cartier-Bresson's talent, his famous "mantle of invisibility" and his good connections with such figures as Nehru, allowed him to capture the quintessence of India - a land renowned for its contradictions and variety. His pictures of Hindus in refugee camps after the Partition or of beggars in Calcutta, speak with the same passion and authority as those of the Maharaja of Baroda's sumptuous birthday celebrations, or of the Mountbattens posed on the steps of Government House. Considerable space is given to his famous reportages, such as the astonishing sequence on the death and cremation of Gandhi. Above all, his skill selects the apparently ordinary faces and scenes from market, temple or countryside that define the spirit of a country.

5.0 out of 5 stars Until this book I thought India needed to be in colour, 4 Sep 2001

By	sandypearson7@hotmail.com (UK) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Henri Cartier-Bresson in India (Paperback)

Inspirational. The images are wonderful and Bresson demonstrates an obvious relationship through the camera with his subjects. The images show spontanteity and a sensitivity we know him for and his powers of observation are clearly illustrated from the first to last plate. A beautiful book to be looked at over and over again whether looking for inspiration as a travel photographer or an admirer of fine art. Sandy Pearson
