Biography of Robert Doisneau

Robert Doisneau (born 1912) is one of the most famous French photographers of the 20th century. Known for his photographs of daily life in Paris, he has captured with great sensitivity the simple and authentic moments of the streets of the capital. After studying engraving at the École Estienne, he turned to photography and quickly became a privileged witness of post-war Paris. His style, characterized by warm humanism and a subtle sense of humour, immortalizes ordinary life scenes that become, under his objective, timeless works of art. Among his most famous photos are Le Baiser de l'Hôtel de Ville, which embodies the romantic spirit of Paris.
