World's most famous photo

Copyright by Microsoft/Charles O'Rear


Firstly Mona Lisa was world’s most famous painting.

But this photo is seen by more than 1 billion! people since 2002 when it was published and printed the very first time and it is very likely that you have already seen this photo at least once today.

The photograph  is of course ‘Bliss’ taken by Charles O’Rear, an author and photographer who worked as staff photographer for National Geographic for more than 25 years and who sold this image to Microsoft more than ten years ago.

If you want to see more photos of Charles’ work please visit his homepage here
