Magnum photos – a new archive and some great photographers
Magnum photos has a new archive. As one of its co-founders Henri Cartier-Bresson said , “Magnum is a community of thought, a shared human quality, a curiosity about what is going on in the world, a respect for what is going on and a desire to transcribe it visually.
(note other founders include Robert Capa, David “Chim” Seymour,George Rodger,William Vandivert,)
