Says Magnum of the collection: "The works included in the Square Print sale are intended to spark debate around the meaning of the decisive moment. What goes through a photographer’s mind when capturing a shot? What are the moral or ethical implications in the quest to find the decisive moment? What part does the unconscious play? Is the realisation of a decisive moment always in the present, or can that come later? Is there even such a thing as the decisive moment?" The prints are available at [http://shop.magnumphotos.com/](http://shop.magnumphotos.com/). We're coveting Robert Capa's portrait of Picasso and Thomas Hoepker's shot of Muhammad Ali.
