Summary:
In more than 100 landscape photographs taken in locations on many continents -- particularly Europe, Asia and the U.S. -- each image in the book represents one of Cartier-Bresson's "decisive moments". Although some photographs contain people, the focus is on outdoor surroundings, from majestic mountains to flowing rivers, narrow canals and lush topography to cityscapes: the landscapes of Nature and the landscapes of Man as captured by Cartier-Bresson's camera. The accompanying text is an important new and poetic assessment of the artist by Erik Orsenna.
