EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in Madras, India in 1965 by the talented photographer Folco Quilici, transports us to a vibrant urban scene. In the foreground stands a majestic buffalo cart, its rustic wooden wheels and sturdy frame representing the essence of farming and country life. The cart exudes an air of tradition and simplicity, reminding us of the importance of agriculture in this bustling city. In stark contrast to the rural charm of the buffalo cart, we see a Christian newsstand standing tall in the background. This modern structure symbolizes progress and development within Madras. Its presence hints at how religion intertwines with everyday life for Indians living in this diverse metropolis. The composition is strikingly balanced as these two contrasting elements coexist harmoniously within one frame. It is as if time itself has frozen to capture this unique juxtaposition between tradition and modernity. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this photograph offers glimpses into various aspects of Indian society during that era. The presence of adolescents suggests a youthful energy permeating through Madras' streets while also highlighting their role as future custodians of cultural traditions. Furthermore, it provides valuable insights into anthropology, ethnography, folklore - showcasing Asiatic populations' diversity and rich heritage. Quilici's masterful use of light adds depth to every detail captured on film. Shadows dance across both structures creating an intriguing interplay between darkness and illumination. As we gaze upon this remarkable image from Alinari's collection without any commercial intentions or affiliations mentioned here let us appreciate not only its artistic merits but also reflect on our own place within history's grand tapestry
