Rue Marcellin Berthelot, Choisy-le-Roi, 1945

Born in 1912 Robert Doisneau was a pioneer of French photojournalism and produced a prolific collection of work. In 1939, after a number of years working in advertising, his work as a true street photographer began.

Whilst working for the Rapho photo agency and with a growing interest in capturing ordinary people on the streets of France, Doisneau found his vision in documenting the simple and sometimes awkward moments of everyday life.
