For more than 60 years, Carrtier-Bresson's intimate portraits have exposed the person behind the pose. Cartier is not alone when he calls portraiture the one domain which photography has won away from painting.

The portraits featured in this exhibition were chosen from many images spanning six decades of Cartier-Bresson's work, 1937-1997. As both artist and journalist Cartier-Bresson met and photographed the world's leading artist's,writers and politicians. His portraits comprise an unrivalled record of our time, the way we look, the people we admire, and the secrets we try to keep.
