An icon of the 20th century and a lovely, lovely person. I was fortunate to have met her many years ago and she was inspiring. Some of her work here:

    Wow. Thanks for passing this on. I hadn't heard. She took many iconic photos of the 21th Century.

    RIP Eve.

    I was genuinely shocked when I heard this. We live in such a shitty age of fake celebrities and people who are looking for the quick road to success and whilst Eve was anything but a celeb you only have to look at her work to see how she inspired a generation. A wonderful human being.

    Tbh I would have thought she had passed already. I haven't really followed her work, or any of the ex-Magnum folk for a very long time. I will have to remind myself of her beautiful work.
