Ep 020: Maximilian Virgili

A SHOT podcast speaks with photographer Maximilian Virgili about his portrait of a nonna in Tuscany, Italy, for a Zeit magazine story about wild boar as a culinary delicacy. In the conversation, Maximilian considers how travel helped unlock what he was interested in photographically, reflects on what it means to take a picture of someone that they might not want you to take, and examines why his images so often return to tabletop scenes of dining and drinking.See Maximilian’s photo here.Donate to help keep A SHOT podcast going.
