A decades-spanning curation of photographs by Henri Cartier-Bresson builds a collective portrait of the people of Europe.

Europeans is an exhibition of iconic black and white photographs taken by Cartier-Bresson as he journeyed across the European continent between 1929 and 1991. The photographs portray Europe, its landscape and people, in various situations and at different stages of history, providing viewers a window into the continent over six decades.

This exhibition is produced in cooperation with Foundation Henri Cartier-Bresson, Paris.
