Harry Gruyaert’s 1988 photograph from the “Bal du Rat Mort” carnival in Ostende, Belgium, is available as a beautiful vintage dye-transfer print from the 1989 Magnum exhibition “In Our Time”.

Another highlight of the stand is Paolo’s fantastic Antarctica composite piece taken from his 2017 trip surveying climate change.
