As the legend goes, Magnum Photos was founded by Robert Capa over a magnum of champagne at the Museum of Modern Art, and took its name from that particularly generously sized bottle. The New York bureau of Magnum Photos opened in 1947 at 55 West 8th Street, and was first run by Rita Vandivert, wife of photographer William Vandivert. Empty magnum bottles still adorn the office, serving as a reminder of Capa’s favourite drink. One sits on a shelf where a young Elliott Erwitt and his first wife pose with their baby daughter, in a candid early shot of the agency office by Werner Bischof.

This image features in a new exhibition exploring the early years of the agency in New York. See the feature on magnumphotos.com. Link in bio.
