This book brings together his iconic images as well as many photos from his archives that are little-known or being shown here for the first time. The text includes writing by the art historians, Xavier Canonne and Michel Poivert and a long portrait of the photographer, written by his wife Mary van Eupen, combining artistic landmarks with personal memories.
