Note: A candid urban scene, this photograph by Willy Rizzo captures two male figures from behind, walking side by side down a tree-lined avenue. The slightly low framing and depth of field lead the eye into the background, while the contrast between the two figures - one more slender, the other stockier - suggests a silent, almost cinematic relationship.
A major photographer of the XXᵉ century, Willy Rizzo distinguished himself as much in reportage as in fashion and celebrity photography. In his street images, he reveals a particular attention to composition and atmosphere, transforming ordinary scenes into moments imbued with elegance and narrative.
