Over a period of 30 years, he amassed an encyclopedic collection of approximately 4,000 images, one of the top collections in the world. The MFAH acquired the holdings in 2002 and 2004, providing the public with an unparalleled visual record of the people, places, and events that have defined the Western world since the invention of photography. Ansel Adams, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Walker Evans, Heinrich Kühn, Man Ray, Alfred Stieglitz, and Edward Weston are just a few of the famous figures whose work is included.
