National Geographic revolutionized photography and the photo essay.
The magazine’s photographers, who are sometimes armed with up to nine different cameras and 500 rolls of film for a single assignment, have captured the world with tack-sharp images.
More than 200 photos from the past 125 years are featured in the new book “National Geographic: Around the World in 125 Years – Europe.”
“The ideal Geographic picture should command attention,” writes Photo Editor Franklin Fisher, who worked for the magazine in the 1920s.
