Riverboat - Willy Ronis

Paris Photo Daily #5

Riverboat - Willy Ronis | Paris, 1949

Willy Ronis found beauty in the simplicity of daily life, focusing his lens on regular people going about their everyday routines. As one of the pioneers of humanist photography in France, he worked alongside masters like Robert Doisneau, Henri Cartier-Bresson, and Brassaï. Together, they transformed ordinary Parisian moments into poetic images that captured the warmth and spirit of post-war France. Ronis had a special gift for finding magic in the mundane, creating photographs that celebrated the dignity and charm of everyday life.
