EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of country life in the state of Uttar Pradesh, India's most populous state. Taken in 1965 by renowned photographer Folco Quilici, this image offers a unique foreshortening perspective on the vibrant rural landscape. In this scene, we are transported to a bustling street corner in Northern India. A business sign stands tall against an urban backdrop, showcasing the furnishings available for civic spaces. The sign serves as a symbol of communication and publicity within this thriving community. As our eyes wander through the frame, we notice various elements that define daily life in Uttar Pradesh. A horse gracefully trots along the road while terrestrial mammals roam freely nearby. In contrast to these animals, a child's portrait catches our attention with its innocence and curiosity. Transportation plays a significant role in this snapshot of Indian culture. An automobile shares space with bicycles on the busy street, representing different modes of travel available to locals navigating their way through city life. The view extends beyond mere transportation; it encompasses an entire cityscape teeming with activity. We catch glimpses of Indians going about their daily routines – an insight into Asiatic populations' rich diversity and heritage. Anthropology comes alive within this photograph as it showcases ethnography and folklore intertwined seamlessly with modernity. Every object within sight tells its own story – from carts and wheelbarrows serving as necessary tools for livelihoods to furniture adorning public spaces where communities gather. Quilici's masterful composition allows us to immerse ourselves fully in this moment frozen in time – capturing not just one aspect but multiple facets that make Uttar Pradesh such a fascinating place within India's subcontinent.
