Marc Lubb, a French photographer with a passion for photography, has had an eye for "beauty" since he was a child, and has a keen eye for the details of life.
When he was 14 years old, his father gave him a camera, and his career as a photographer began.
Marc loved documenting life's little things, and in 1952 he traveled to Paris, where he met Bresson, a high-profile photographer of the time and the best of his life.
Under Bresson's tutelage, Marc's photographic skills matured, especially with his photograph of The Painter of the Eiffel Tower, which catapulted him to fame.
This ** seems to be just an ordinary worker doing routine work, but under Mark's lens, it has become an artistic work.
In the picture, the painter stands at the top of the Eiffel Tower, working diligently, showing a unique beauty.
A painter is working on the slope, standing gracefully, his feet in the shape of one after the other, one hand holding the iron frame next to him, as if dancing, showing his love for life and the spirit of actively working hard to live.
Regarded by Mark as a work of art, it earned fame and was featured in a well-known fashion weekly. Eventually, the ** was recognized by Bresson, which won Mark an invitation to join the Magnum ** society.
This move laid a solid foundation for his future photography Xi in China, and he has been invited to the political world many times to photograph important figures.
Mark later traveled around the world, documenting a variety of landscapes and customs, and China became one of his favorite countries.
His longing for China can be traced back to the 50s, when he met a friend of *** while traveling in Kolkata, which led to China's first invitation to Western photographers.
So, on the first day of 1957, Mark entered the Lo Wu Port from Hong Kong Customs and took the first **, recording the woman with a special sitting posture and sadness and fatigue in her eyes, which left a deep impression on him.
Later, he traveled to Beijing and saw street artists performing, feeling the thriving scene of Beijing as the Spring Festival approached.
In Beijing, he rode around on a tricycle with another Magnum photographer, and got a more intimate feel for the life of Beijing's urban residents.
A man under the gates of Beijing, raising a sledgehammer and preparing to slam a boulder on the ground, amazed Mark.
He pressed the shutter and recorded this moment, deeply feeling the enthusiasm of the Chinese people and their yearning for a better life. During his stroll in Beijing, he really appreciated China's customs and customs.
After the heavy snowfall, the afterglow of the setting sun makes the Forbidden City look extraordinarily brilliant. There, he witnessed thousands of years of Chinese historical relics and witnessed the architecture that has experienced the vicissitudes of the times.
He also saw tourists enjoying the snow scenes, and they used their cameras to freeze the beautiful moments for eternity. Mark was invited to come to China by China**.
He became the only foreign photographer at the banquet, when the Chinese ** received the Polish Prime Minister at the Beijing Hotel. Before the banquet began, the staff specially explained: "You can't take pictures when you go in, especially the face of ***."
However, at the moment of the toast with the Polish lady, he pressed the shutter despite being advised. ** Gave Mark a deep impression that he saw the extraordinary bearing of the great man, serious and dignified.
Although the ** was only photographed by the hand of the Prime Minister's wife, which was not perfect, Mark kept this ** for many years and never made it public, until it was made public 50 years later.
He also filmed ***, with two fingers, without looking at the camera, as if he was talking to the person next to him.
In fact, Mark accidentally captured *** explaining that his gesture was expressing the importance of Marxism-Leninism to him during his Xi in France.
In 2010, Mark released the *** photo in the photography exhibition held in Shanghai, China, which was unanimously praised, allowing the world to witness the great man's kindness and demeanor.
Mark has witnessed the changes in China and the development of New China with his more than 50 years of photographic creation, and many of his ** have far-reaching expressive effects. He once said: "China is developing rapidly, and I look forward to China becoming a better place."
Through Mark's work, we can feel a photographer's relentless pursuit of beauty. He used his camera to capture beautiful and unique moments, and at the same time, we were able to witness the great man of those years again.
