From the Back Cover
David « Chim » Seymour (1911-1956) compte parmi les photoreporters les plus légendaires du XXe sičcle, cofondateur de l'agence Magnum avec Henri Cartier-Bresson et Robert Capa. Pour de grandes revues, comme Life ou Regards, il a documenté les événements les plus significatifs de son époque: la Guerre civile espagnole, les lieux et les visages de l'Europe marquée par la Seconde Guerre mondiale, les espoirs suscités par la naissance de l'État d'Israėl; ou encore l'Italie d'aprčs-guerre, avec toutes ses contradictions: les étoiles naissantes de Cinecittą, les palais du Vatican, Venise, mais aussi les processions religieuses et les petites écoles rurales disséminées dans le sud du pays.
Ą travers plus de 120 clichés en noir et blanc, l'ouvrage retrace la carričre de ce photographe extraordinaire qui a raconté son époque sans retenue, nourri par une forte conscience sociale et déterminé ą źtre toujours « au coeur de l'action ».
