Magnum Archive Unearthed

posted November 17, 2014 #

Magnum Photos is a lot of things but, at the core, it's a collective of passionate and talented photographers - founded by Robert Capa, Henri Cartier-Bresson, George Rodger and David Seymour - that's been documenting our planet beautifully since 1947. The recently asked several of their members to dive into their archives and release a new photo - something from the contact sheet that they'd just not published - and share it with the world.

You can see many of the results from this 'Archive Dive' here (and more here and here). I can't seem to find the official collection anymore but I highly suggest jumping around to see these beautiful images and their backstories.
