Henri Cartier-Bresson, Behind the Gare St. Lazare

Henri Cartier-Bresson, Behind the Gare St. Lazare
When I first read about this in PopPhoto I thought the news was a book of unseen Henri Cartier-Bressons work was being published but alas it is an exhibition it seems.
Another chapter is being written this fall, however, with the unveiling of an ornate leather photo album that has been culled from the archive of Cartier-Bresson, who died in 2004 at age 95. The album, housed at the Henri Cartier-Bresson Foundation in Paris, contains 345 images printed by HCB himself to prepare for the MoMA show. Some of the images are among his most famous. Others are "outtakes" of well-known images. Most of the images in the album have never been seen before.


Still, interesting stuff for those who can see it. Not only was he a really cool photographer, he had a fascinating life.
