    Henri Cartier-Bresson, born on August 22, 1908 in Chanteloup-en-Brie and died on August 3, 2004 at the age of 95, was a French photographer, photojournalist and cartoonist. Known for the precision and the graphism of his compositions (never cropped in the print), he was especially famous in street photography, the representation of picturesque or significant aspects of everyday life. With Robert Capa, David Seymour, William Vandivert and George Rodger, they founded the cooperative agency Magnum Photos in 1947.
