EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the false Imperial Palace of Beijing, also known as the Forbidden City rebuilt, in all its grandeur. Taken in 2005 by Quilici Folco, this image transports us to the heart of Beijing (Peking), China. The ornate ornamentation and exquisite furniture and furnishings within the palace are a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of China. Each intricate detail tells a story, reflecting an abstract concept or symbol that holds deep meaning for those who visit. As we gaze at the photograph, our eyes are drawn to a majestic dragon soaring through a cloudy sky. The dragon, a fanciful animal deeply rooted in Chinese mythology and folklore, represents power and good fortune. Its presence adds an air of mystique to this already enchanting scene. In the distance lies a serene sea landscape with rolling waves crashing against rocky shores. This juxtaposition between land and water evokes feelings of harmony and balance - essential elements in Chinese philosophy. A prominent crest adorns one side of the palace's entrance gate - an emblem representing not just royalty but also national pride. It serves as a reminder that this architectural masterpiece is more than just a building; it is an iconic symbol of China's imperial past. Quilici Folco's expertly captured photograph allows us to appreciate both the physical beauty and symbolic significance behind this reconstructed Forbidden City. It invites us to delve into literature and fiction inspired by such awe-inspiring structures while immersing ourselves in Chinese culture. This print from Alinari offers viewers an opportunity to experience firsthand one of China's most treasured landmarks – without ever leaving their homes or offices.
