    Steve McCurry è un maestro universalmente riconosciuto delle arti fotografiche, noto per la sua evocativa fotografia a colori.

Le sue immagini trasmettono cosa significhi essere una persona immersa nella più ampia condizione umana, concentrandosi sulle conseguenze del conflitto piuttosto che sugli eventi stessi.
