Henri Cartier-Bresson: The Decisive Moment

In a 1952 review in the New York Herald Tribune, Philippe Halsman wrote of Henri Cartier-Bresson's groundbreaking The Decisive Moment, "Cartier-Bresson is perhaps the greatest living photographer. One hundred twenty-six memorable photographs are assembled here in a book of unusual beauty. The text, written by Cartier-Bresson himself, belongs to the most intelligent and lucid writing about photography." Featured spread, from Steidl's exquisite new edition, is captioned, "In Punjab, India, 1947. There is idleness and despair where people are gathered without homes At Kurukshetra camp they were given simple gymnastics to distract them, to work off their energies."
