EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Sinai. Views from the sky of an intersection of paved roads in the desert of Sinai" transports us to the vast and barren landscapes of Egypt's Sinai Peninsula. Taken by renowned photographer Quilici, Folco in 1987, this image captures a unique perspective from above, revealing an intricate network of intersecting paved roads amidst the unforgiving desert terrain. The photograph showcases the stark contrast between man-made infrastructure and nature's raw beauty. As our eyes wander across the frame, we are struck by how these carefully constructed pathways seamlessly blend into their surroundings, almost as if they were etched into the earth itself. The aerial viewpoint offers a sense of scale and isolation that is both humbling and awe-inspiring. In this remote corner of Egypt, where time seems to stand still, one cannot help but ponder upon the purpose behind these roads. Were they built for practical reasons or do they serve as symbolic markers connecting ancient civilizations? Perhaps they represent humanity's relentless pursuit to conquer even the most inhospitable environments. Quilici's masterful composition invites us to contemplate not only our place within this vast expanse but also our relationship with nature and progress. It reminds us that even in desolate landscapes like Sinai, human ingenuity can leave its mark while simultaneously blending harmoniously with Mother Earth. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph captured over three decades ago by Quilici himself – a true pioneer in his field – we are reminded once again that art has no boundaries when it comes to stirring emotions and sparking curiosity about our world's wonders.
