Die frühen Photographien 1926-1934

When 24-year old Henri Cartier-Bresson acquired a Leica camera in 1932, his casual interest in photography turned into passion. This volume explores the photographer’s early work documenting the poor and disenfranchised in Italy, Spain, Eastern Europe, and Mexico. Marked by tangible empathy and solidarity with the models, it is an original body of work to be rediscovered.
