Mario Testino: Peru and me

World Update

Available for over a year

From Kate Moss to Madonna to Princess Diana, Mario Testino has photographed some of the most iconic and glamorous people in the world. But now he's focusing his lens on his homeland, Peru. He's set up a gallery in Lima and - as the new president of the board of the World Monuments Fund in Peru - seems committed to preserving Peru's rich cultural past. Dan caught up with him at his gallery in London. (Photo: Some of Mario Testino's vibrant images of traditional Peruvian dress.
