Book Description: Bulfinch Pr, New York, New York, U.S.A., 2001. Cloth. Book Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. First American Edition. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. First North American Edition. 4to. Magnum agency cofounder Henri Cartier-Bresson's idiosyncratic approach to photography and reportage has produced many classic images of humans and their world. This collection of 105 duotone photographs, taken over a lifetime of travel in postwar Europe and all over the globe, demonstrates his ability to capture subtleties in the landscape at a decisive moment or point of view. Erik Orsenna offers a poetic text introducing some of Cartier-Bresson's themes, including the juxtaposition of trees and tombstones; how snow and mist alter the perception of the landscape; trains and rails through the landscape; shadows and steps; and all sorts of people walking and watching. 240 pp. New in new dustjacket, sealed in publisher's shrinkwrap.
