Martine Franck: Subtlety, Brilliance, and Grace

Last week, on August 16, the world has lost another gem as the renowned photographer, Martine Franck, the second spouse of the legendary Henri Carter-Bresson, has passed on at the age of 74.

Known for her poignant and intimate portraits of the poor, the marginalized, and the elderly from the different parts of the globe, Martine Franck saw photography as “…an ideal way of expressing [herself], of telling people what was going on without having to talk.”
