“I love the snapshot atheistic of this image. Willy Rizzo was great friends with Jack Nicholson - when Rizzo died in 2013, Nicholson was one of the pallbearers. Snapshot photography is generally associated with the family, Christmas, birthdays and holidays, a personal document of times spent with friends or an occasion. This snapshot aesthetic, and because of their close friendship, I believe, gives this portrait of Jack Nicholson a feeling of intimacy and homeliness and in turn helps break down the distance between the subject and the viewer.” Matthew Murray 2020
