The first compilation of writings by a master of photography.
One of the leading lights in photography of the twentieth century,
Henri Cartier-Bresson is also a shrewd observer and critic. His
writings on photography and photographers, which have appeared
sporadically over the past forty-five years, are gathered here for
the first time. Several have never before appeared in English.
"The Mind's Eye" features Cartier-Bresson's famous text on "the
decisive moment" as well as his observations on Moscow, Cuba, and
China during turbulent times, which ring with the same immediacy
and visual intensity that he brings to his photography.
Cartier-Bresson remains as direct and insightful as ever in his
writings. His commentary on photographer friends he has
known-including Robert Capa, Andre Kertesz, Ernst Haas, and Sarah
Moon-reveal the impassioned and compassionate vision for which
Cartier-Bresson is beloved.
