Toronto. My good friend, George Dunbar, discovered a very well illustrated bio of that famous French street photographer, Henri Cartier-Bresson.
George writes, ” A wonderful bio of Henri Cartier-Bresson’s amazing career was published in 2014 (Henri Cartier-Bresson, Here and Now….by Clément Chéroux). The large, 400 page volume contains 500 illustrations, many of which have been published for the first time.
“Certainly, this book will please the many admirers of such a world-famous artist and photographer. Published in USA by Thames & Hudson Inc., 500 Fifth Avenue, New York, NY 10110. Fortunately, this book is also available from the Toronto Public Library.
“Below, the cover and a couple of images with my caption that ambiguously refers to these photos as well as the photographer’s well-known talent. P.S. I hope there is no copyright problem here, since this is an educational message intended to promote the book’s readership.”
Note: The post title is a riff on an old ad, “Quick, Henry … the Flit” that offered a solution for those summertime pests, house flies and mosquitos.
