14 iconic photos of Tim Mantoani

Since December 11, the Lumiere Brothers Photography Center in Moscow has been hosting an exhibition of one of the most famous contemporary photographers, Tim Mantoani.

A few years ago, he came up with the idea to make a project ‘Behind Photographs’, dedicated to other successful photographers who have created world-famous works. After all, often the names of photo masters remain in the shadow of their popular pictures…
