Life through a lens: Belgium’s streets as you've never seen them before
Since the invention of the daguerreotype process revolutionised photography in 1839, photographers have used the streets around them for artistic inspiration.
European cities like Paris and London were among the first subjects for photographers. Images ranged from simple street scenes to candid and intimate portraits of people taken by photographers such as Henri Cartier-Bresson, who is often referred to as the godfather of street photography.
Today, street photography remains just as popular, and many cities have organised collectives where each member documents the city in their own unique style.
