Riboud has long been associated with the illustrious Magnum Photos, Inc., having been mentored by two of the agency’s founders, famed photographers Henri Cartier-Bresson and Robert Capa. Highly sensitive to the nuances and subtleties of cultural variations, Riboud’s photographs provide insightful and memorable vignettes of our rich and diverse world. Known for his strong and graphic compositions, a sense of compassion is also present in his images.
