Magnum Photos
Magnum Photos was founded in 1947 by Henri Cartier-Bresson, Robert Capa, David "Chim" Seymour and George Rodger. It is one of the first photographic 'cooperatives', meaning to be owned and run by its members. And their mission was to "feel the pulse" of the times they lived in, documenting and interpreting the events, issues and people of the world.
Henri Cartier-Bresson, a co-founder of Magnum Photographers, is acknowledged to be the creator of modern photojournalism and also helped to develop "street photography", a very influential style of photography.
