Ernst Haas on the set of
the movie the Misfits 1960
Haas was one of the
first recruits to Robert Capa’s Magnum agency and a
pioneer of colour photography, introducing hues and tones
never before seen in printed colour. In his images of
American street scenes, in cities from New York to Las
Vegas, he captures the play of light on wet streets, glass
shop fronts and tall, mirrored buildings to almost
impressionistic effect: as in this 1969 picture of Route
66, Albuquerque
