Henri Cartier-Bresson, whom many consider the father of modern photography, was born in 1908. To celebrate the centenary of his birth, the Maison Européene de la Photographie has been showcasing more than 300 photographs from their own collection, built up over several decades. The collection has two key themes: "Paris" and "Europeans".

The exhibition closes August 30th 2009 – that's this Sunday, photo lovers!

Never mind if you consider yourself a Parisien, a European, or simply a citizen of the world – don't miss this priceless opportunity to experience the work of one of the 20th century's true greats.
