David Seymour Fine Print Collection
Born in Warsaw, Dawid Szymin—later known as David ‘Chim’ Seymour—embarked upon a career of freelance photography that would eventually lead him to meet Henri Cartier-Bresson. In 1947, along with several others, the pair founded Magnum Photos. Chim's education in the arts gave him a visual acuity that counterbalanced his empathetic eye, allowing him to capture striking images that were deeply human without being sentimental.
