About Europeans

In Europeans, Cartier-Bresson captures the lives and stories of the inhabitants of a continent that was going through an irreversible and deep change. So, with every portrait, he managed to create a narrative composed by lots of individual stories depicting the climate of post-war Europe. As a result, the viewer is taken into a landscape of war, loss and human resilience. Travelling from country to country, Cartier-Bresson studied his subjects beyond their political views. He was aiming for their essence and their identity as Europeans.
