Magnum Photos

　　The classic Photofile series brings together the best work of the world's greatest photographers in an attractive format and at a reasonable price.

　　Handsome and collectible, the books each contain some sixty reproductions in color and/or duotone, plus a critical introduction and a bibliography.

　　Magnum was the first cooperative photo agency, created by the photographers themselves. It owes its reputation to the quality of its members, who never ignore the guiding principle of the agency's founders: solidarity in respect for the individual. Magnum photographers are united in their basic understanding of journalism and a humanistic view of their fellow beings. 72 photographs in color and duotone
