EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the ancient capital of Tula, Mexico. Taken in 1968 by renowned photographer Folco Quilici, it showcases the Toltec ruins that have stood for centuries as a testament to a once-thriving civilization. The image captures the essence of Tula's rich history and archaeological significance. The site is teeming with excavations, monuments, and complexes that offer glimpses into the lives of its former inhabitants. Each stone structure tells a story of an advanced society that flourished during the tenth century. One cannot help but be mesmerized by the intricate sculptures found within these ruins. The craftsmanship displayed in every detail speaks volumes about the skill and artistry possessed by those who created them. These sculptures serve as tangible connections to a past long gone yet still alive through their preservation. Quilici's photograph beautifully captures not only the physical remnants of this ancient city but also its aura of mystery and wonderment. It invites viewers to imagine what life was like during this era – bustling markets, grand ceremonies, and intellectual pursuits taking place amidst these very walls. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Alinari, we are reminded of our human desire to uncover our past and understand where we came from. It serves as a reminder that beneath our modern world lies layers upon layers of history waiting to be discovered. Let this photograph transport you on an imaginary journey through time as you explore Tula: Toltec ruins – an extraordinary window into Mexico's fascinating pre-Columbian heritage.
