Eugène Atget is a photographer that i just learned about a short while ago. Eugène was a French photographer that was an early pioneer in street and documentary photography. While he wasn't really known during his lifetime outside of his architectural work, (mostly due to his personality) after his death his work was brought to light and he is now considered one of the early masters of photography.
