Lartigue Redux

 

Due to all the tumult of Thanksgiving and work, Antonio and Ward are taking a small break and presenting this rerun of their popular episode called "Lost in Lartigue." Here are the show notes from the original 2019 broadcast:

 

In this episode, I'm joined by my buddy Ward Rosin and we do a deep dive into the photographer Jacques-Henri Lartigue. 

Ward and I touch on many aspects of Lartigue's work including his love of speed and his use of one of the first color photography processes called "Autochrome." We make some interesting discoveries during our chat and I'm sure you will too as you listen to us both talk about a photographer we've admired for a long time.

This is the first of what will be a regular feature on Street Shots. The idea of talking about interesting and exceptional photographers with a buddy has been something I've wanted to do on the show for a while now. Any feedback is appreciated.
