100 years, 100 stories: Leica marks a century of historic images with a new photo book

Misan HarrimanBlack Lives Matter protest in London London, June 6, 2020.

You know the name, and you know its photographs. Leica has been part of photography’s story for a century. To mark 100 years since the release of the original Leica I, the company has published 100 Leica Stories, a photography book that brings together moments, images, and reflections shaped through the lens of a Leica camera.

Spanning 320 pages and featuring 170 photographs, the book navigates between familiar milestones and lesser-known accounts. It features work by photographers whose images have helped define how we remember the last century; Henri Cartier-Bresson at Gare Saint-Lazare, Yevgeny Khaldei at the Reichstag, Ilse Bing in the mirror, and Marc Riboud facing the National Guard.
