Foreword by Henri Cartier-Bresson. Introduction by Richard Whelan. A classic retrospective anthology of the master photographer. In these photographs, we see the world through the eyes of a driven humanist who was an artist as well as a documentarian of the finest caliber. Robert Capa: Photographs is the first true retrospective book of one of the century’s greatest photographers. Drawing upon hundreds of previously unseen images, this collection reveals Capa in a new light — as one of the true poets of the camera. While previous volumes have focused on his role as a war photographer, Robert Capa: Photographs shows us the remarkable range of his work, which encompasses the sufferings as well as the tenderness, humor, and wonder of his subjects. Photographs includes a foreword by Capa’s close friend Henri Cartier-Bresson, as well as an informative historical essay by Capa biographer Richard Whelan. Robert Capa was born in Budapest in 1913. He was first recognized for his photographs of the Spanish Civil War. On assignment for Life magazine in 1954, Capa was killed in Vietnam.
