EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, captured by the talented photographer Quilici, Folco in 1983, transports us to the enchanting village of Gurna in Upper Egypt's Luxor region. The image depicts a timeless scene of everyday life - the transportation of sugar cane cut on the backs of donkeys. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness a harmonious blend of tradition and labor. A group of hardworking villagers can be seen meticulously loading bundles upon bundles of freshly harvested sugar cane onto the sturdy backs of their loyal donkeys. The sun casts long shadows across their path as they navigate through narrow streets lined with ancient mud-brick houses. The composition exudes a sense of simplicity and authenticity that is characteristic of rural Egyptian life. Each donkey carries its load with grace and resilience, embodying both strength and humility. Their presence symbolizes an enduring bond between humans and animals that has sustained generations throughout history. As we delve deeper into this mesmerizing scene, our senses are awakened by the subtle details within each frame. Dust particles dance in the air, illuminated by rays filtering through palm trees overhead. The distant silhouette of Luxor's iconic landmarks adds depth to this otherwise unassuming village setting. Quilici's masterful use of light and shadow creates a dramatic contrast that enhances every element within the frame – from weathered faces etched with stories to worn-out tools used for cutting sugarcane. This remarkable photograph serves as a window into another world – one where time seems to stand still amidst bustling activity. It reminds us that even mundane tasks can hold profound beauty when observed through an artist's lens.
