Yousuf Karsh

Yousuf Karsh was the most renowned portrait photographer of our time. He worked tirelessly for over half a century recording unforgettable images of the statesmen, artists, literary and scientific figures who shaped our lives. He once commented: “To make enduring photographs, one must learn to see with the mind’s eye, for the heart and the mind are the true lens of the camera.”

Karsh passed away on July 13, 2002 at the age of ninety three. This image of Winston Churchill remains his best known.
