Martin Munkácsi

Martin Munkácsi was one of the leading pioneers in the early 20th Century. His diverse style and range influenced some of the biggest names in photography including Edward Steichen, Richard Avedon and Henri Cartier-Bresson.

Munkácsi changed photojournalism though successful careers at Berliner Illustrirte Zeitung in Germany and Harper's Bazaar in the United States.

Interestingly, despite his huge influence on modern photography, he's one of the more obscure names in recent history. But importantly, Martin Munkácsi brought photography from the older pictorialist school of working into the new Modernism of the mid-twentieth century.
