Robert Capa: Photographs

By Robert Capa

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.
