Henri Cartier-Bresson - The Europeans
For the first time in 70 years, the Fondation Henri Cartier-Bresson is reissuing this emblematic work by Henri Cartier-Bresson.
Published by Verve in 1955, three years after the resounding success of The Decisive Moment, The Europeans brings together 114 photographs taken by Henri Cartier-Bresson between 1950 and 1955 across ten European countries. Taken during assignments for Harper’s Bazaar, Life, Holiday, and Paris Match, these images form a unique visual testimony of post-war Europe in the midst of reconstruction.
With The Europeans Henri Cartier-Bresson does not aim to provide an exhaustive inventory, but rather composes a vibrant portrait of the inhabitants of a continent undergoing profound change.
As with The Decisive Moment in 2024, the Fondation Henri Cartier-Bresson now offers a reissue of The Europeans in a smaller, more manageable and accessible format, while remaining faithful to the spirit of the original edition.
