Russian photographer and photojournalist Vladimir Lagrange has died at the age of 83. About it informed founder of the Lumiere Brothers Gallery and Center for Photography Natalia Grigorieva-Litvinskaya on Facebook.
Grigoryeva-Litvinskaya called it “the most Russian, the most Moscow.” He was one of those people for whom I wanted to return to Moscow, she noted.
Vladimir Lagrange was born in Moscow. He worked in the photo chronicle TASS from 1959 to 1963. Then, until 1989, he was a special photojournalist for the Soviet Union magazine.
For two years after that, he worked in the Rodina magazine. In 1991-1995 he was an employee of the Moscow bureau of the French agency Sipa Press. His works were published by many Soviet and foreign newspapers and magazines.
