One of the world’s leading photography agencies, founded in 1947 by Robert Capa, Henri Cartier-Bresson, David Seymour, George Rodger and William Vandivert, in the form of a cooperative society of photographers, to bring together the best skills and experience in the world of photography, without being subject to customer requirements.
Italy celebrates seventy years of Magnum with a series of exhibitions that analyse the ability of the image to recount events, worlds, and social transformations through the eye of the camera. A voyage through history not to be missed.
