Henri Cartier-Bresson
(Not For
Sale)
This
picture’s rarity is not that it was
taken by Henri Cartier-Bresson, but
because it is "of" Cartier-Bresson.
Look closer at the
photographer in the background. As
one of the “world’s most famous
photographers” Cartier-Bresson
always tried to keep his own
identity secret. It’s said, his
reasoning was if people could not
recognise him, they would obviously
act more naturally than they would
if they knew they were being
photographed by the French grand
master of photography himself. However, on this
rare occasion he was captured on
film.
