'''''Monsoon''''' is a series of colour photographs taken by New Zealand photographer [[Brian Brake]], a member of the [[Magnum Photos]] cooperative. Brake illustrated the effect of the monsoon by concentrating on the people affected by it.<br />
<br />
Taken in India in 1960 during the monsoon season, the photos made Brake’s reputation. ''[[Life (magazine)|Life]]'' published twenty of the 110 images he took, including the most famous, ''Monsoon girl'' of the actress [[Aparna Sen]], which appeared on the cover of ''Life''. Several other magazines also published them; ''[[Paris Match]]'' and ''[[Queen (magazine)|Queen]]''.<br />
