(1908-2004). With his Leica camera, French photographer Henri Cartier-Bresson traveled the world, recording the images he saw. His humane, spontaneous photographs helped establish photojournalism as an art form.

Cartier-Bresson was born in Chanteloup, near Paris, on Aug. 22, 1908. In the late 1920s he studied painting both in Paris and at Cambridge University in England. But exhibits of the photographs of Man Ray and Eugène Atget, two major 20th-century photographers, began his fascination with the camera.

In 1931 he traveled to Africa with a miniature camera. He bought his first Leica 35-millimeter camera in 1933. His first journalistic photography was in Spain during the civil war in the late 1930s. There he produced his first documentary film-on medical aid in the war. This experience stimulated an interest in motion pictures, and he worked as an assistant to the film director Jean Renoir.

During World War II Cartier-Bresson was imprisoned by the Germans, but he escaped in 1943 and joined the French underground. In 1947 he helped found, along with Robert Capa, the freelance agency Magnum Photos. There were many exhibits of his work, including a 1955 traveling exhibition, before his photographs were put in the National Library in Paris. In later years most of Cartier-Bresson's interest was in motion pictures. He died on Aug. 3, 2004, in Céreste, France. ( See also photography.)
