Magnum Photographers Reveal Their Most Intimate Photographs

Intimacy plays a strange and precarious role in photography; seeing another person, place, or happening through a lens can either necessitate distance or almost unbearable closeness. When it comes to the relationship between a photographer and his or her subject, the space between is unfixed and murky; the lines that separate the objective from the personal are crossed and recrossed with hopes of touching down on an image that feels both near at hand and wonderfully irretrievable. For their latest print sale, the legendary photographers at Magnum scoured their extensive archives to rediscover the pictures that best capture the theme of “intimacy.”
