The idea of "magnum photography" is to promote photography that is at the same time artistic and reportage photography. It is about photography that gives and transmits information and also causes certain feelings and emotions to viewers. The goal of Magnum agency, which was the founder of such a kind of photograph, was that the photograph is not just a document of an event, but a desire for a photographer to be an image reporter, but also to strongly express his thoughts and attitudes through the form of photo story. This Magnum community shares the same curiosity about what is happening in the world, and has respect for the event itself, and the desire to turn it into visually. It can be said that this is actually a reportage newspapers photography. And most importantly, the progress that is being promoted by this photographic agency is the copyright that remains to the authors, and not to some magazines and other media that have published their photographs. Furthermore, this paper has also touched upon the topic of documentary photography and how certain photos are authentic in relation to the corresponding text or article. Namely, there is a possibility that in some article is written about the history of a person who has acted at some time and has had different influence on a particular area and society, but it is not documented. There are some documents about it, maybe pictures, but how it will know that this photo fits in the story of the article because any photo from that period can be put in and say it belongs to a certain person mentioned in a certain article.
