EDITORS COMMENTS
Capturing the timeless beauty of Egypt's iconic pyramids, this stunning photograph by Quilici, Folco transports us to a mesmerizing moment in history. The image showcases the majestic Pyramids of Giza standing proudly against the backdrop of a breathtaking sunset. As the sun dips below the horizon, its warm golden hues paint an ethereal glow over these ancient wonders. The pyramids themselves are shrouded in mystery and awe-inspiring grandeur. Built as tombs for pharaohs thousands of years ago, they have withstood the test of time and continue to captivate visitors from around the world. In this particular shot taken in 1987, their imposing presence is accentuated by their silhouette against the vibrant sky. The composition skillfully highlights both nature's magnificence and human ingenuity. The vastness of Egypt's desert stretches out before us, while these architectural marvels rise majestically from its sandy embrace. Their triangular forms create a harmonious contrast with the soft curves of dunes that surround them. Quilici, Folco has masterfully captured not only a visual spectacle but also evokes a sense of wonder and contemplation through his lens. This photograph invites viewers to reflect on humanity's ability to create enduring legacies that transcend generations. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Alinari, we are reminded that even after centuries have passed since their construction, these pyramids remain symbols of human achievement and perseverance. They stand as silent witnesses to our collective history and serve as reminders that there is much yet to be discovered about our past. In this single frame frozen in time, Quilici, Folco reminds us why these ancient structures continue to hold such fascination for people worldwide – they are not merely monuments; they embody our shared heritage and inspire endless curiosity about civilizations long gone but never forgotten.
