Description du livre
Every year since 1955 an international jury has convened in Holland under the auspices of the World Press Photo Foundation to choose the finest press photographs of the year.
Universally recognized as the definitive competition for photographic reporting, it has been described by Michael Rand - for many years Art Director of The Sunday Times Magazine as 'the international photographic contest'.
Publishing the results of the forty-third annual World Press Photo Contest, this exceptional book contains the most haunting and inspiring photographs from 1999 over 180 pictures submitted by photojournalists, picture agencies, newspapers and magazines throughout the world. Selected from over 42,000 images taken by more than 3,900 photographers representing 122 countries, these prize-winning photos capture the most powerful, moving and sometimes disturbing events of the year.
