Henri Cartier-Bresson in India is a masterful collection of photographs spanning six journeys to the subcontinent between 1947 and 1980. This volume is particularly significant for its documentation of the final hours of Mahatma Gandhi and the profound national mourning that followed his assassination. Beyond these historical milestones, Cartier-Bresson captures the everyday “decisive moments” of a nation in transition—from the chaotic refugee camps of the partition to the timeless beauty of the Indian landscape and its people. The book features an introduction by Satyajit Ray, providing a unique cultural perspective on the legendary photographer’s gaze.
