2024 Princess of Asturias Award for Concord

Magnum Photos was founded in 1947 by four pioneering photographers: Robert Capa, Henri Cartier-Bresson, George Rodger and David “Chim” Seymour. Driven by their vision to create a photojournalism agency where photographers retained control and freedom over their work, they gave birth to a unique structure — the first cooperative-owned agency run by its photographers.
