Sebastiao Salgado, the revered Brazilian photographer, has died at the age of 81. His dramatic black-and-white photographs played a pivotal role in introducing the Amazon rainforest to global audiences. The announcement of his death came from Instituto Terra, the environmental non-profit he co-founded with his wife, Lelia. Salgado's work earned him accolades as a profound witness to both human experiences and environmental issues. He expressed acceptance over his life’s journey, openly stating his contentment with the experiences he had collected throughout his years.
"I know I won't live much longer, but I don't want to live much longer. I've lived so much and seen so many things."
"Salgado was described as much more than one of the greatest photographers of our time, highlighting his impact beyond mere imagery."
