Born on this day – Brassaï

~ freelancewastrel

‘Do you know what Picasso said when he looked at my drawings in 1939? “You’re crazy, Brassai. You have a gold mine and you spend your time exploiting a salt mine!” The salt mine was – naturally – photography!’

Brassaï (Hungarian/French photographer) – September 9, 1899 – July 8, 1984.
