EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Streets of Bombay, Mumbai, state of Maharashtra" takes us back in time to the bustling cityscape of 1965. The lens captures a mesmerizing scene that encapsulates the essence of this vibrant Indian metropolis. The streets are alive with activity as people go about their daily lives amidst the backdrop of impressive architectural structures. The buildings stand tall, showcasing the unique blend of colonial and indigenous influences that define Bombay's rich history. Each structure tells a story, reflecting both its past and present significance. As we delve deeper into the frame, our eyes are drawn to an array of automobiles navigating through the busy roads. These vehicles serve as a testament to progress and modernization within this ever-evolving city. They coexist harmoniously with pedestrians who traverse these streets on foot or by other means of transportation. Amidst this urban landscape lies an oasis-like presence - towering palm trees swaying gently in the breeze. Their verdant leaves provide respite from the concrete jungle while adding a touch of natural beauty to this bustling scene. Intriguingly, scattered throughout are glimpses into everyday life: Indians going about their routines, capturing moments frozen in time for eternity. This portrait offers us a glimpse into not just one individual's life but also serves as an anthropological window into Asiatic populations' culture and traditions. Quilici Folco's masterful composition allows viewers to immerse themselves fully in this street scene—a captivating view that transports us back half a century ago when Bombay was known as Mumbai—an embodiment of resilience, diversity, and dynamism that continues to define India's State of Maharashtra today.
