EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, captured by the talented photographer Quilici Folco in 1974, depicts the parcelling out of wild lands along the stunning coast of Lecce. The image showcases a mesmerizing blend of landscapes, seamlessly merging farmland countryside with breathtaking seascape views. From an aerial perspective, we are granted a bird's eye view that allows us to fully appreciate the rugged beauty of this coastal region. Rocky areas dotting the landscape add texture and depth to the composition, creating a sense of untamed wilderness amidst human intervention. The photograph captures a pivotal moment in time when these once-wild lands were being divided into parcels for various purposes. It serves as both a historical record and an artistic representation of mankind's impact on nature. Although devoid of color, this monochromatic masterpiece exudes tranquility and serenity. The contrast between light and shadow adds drama to the scene while emphasizing every intricate detail within it. The vastness of the sea stretching towards infinity evokes feelings of awe-inspiring wonderment. Quilici Folco's keen eye for composition is evident in this photograph as he skillfully captures not only the physical elements but also conveys emotions through his lens. This image invites viewers to reflect upon our relationship with nature and raises questions about land development practices. As we gaze at this remarkable piece, we can't help but be transported back in time to witness firsthand how wild lands became tamed along Lecce's enchanting coastline. It serves as a reminder that progress often comes at a cost – one that should make us pause and consider how best to preserve our natural heritage for future generations.
