Ernest Cole was born near Pretoria in 1940. Leaving school at 17 to become a photographer, he secured staff jobs and freelance assignments for newspapers and magazines for blacks—honing his skills with a correspondence course from the New York Institute of Photography. Inspired by Henri Cartier-Bresson’s book The People of Moscow, in 1960 Cole embarked on a project to document the lives of his people which resulted in House of Bondage.

This book will for the first time enable Ernest Cole the Photographer accompanies an exhibition with the same title, produced by the Hasselblad Foundation.
