EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Foreshortening of a lagoon, region of Malabar, state of Kerala, southern India" transports us back to the year 1965. The image captures the essence of this picturesque region in southern India with its stunning natural beauty and unique architectural structures. In the foreground, we see a traditional house standing proudly on the shore of a lagoon. Its intricate design and craftsmanship reflect the rich cultural heritage of Kerala. The house seems to blend seamlessly with its surroundings, nestled amidst lush vegetation and towering palm trees that provide shade from the scorching sun. A small boat floats peacefully on the calm waters, serving as both a method of transportation for locals and an integral part of their daily lives. A gangway extends towards it, inviting us to imagine embarking on our own journey through these serene waters. The composition is further enhanced by a group of adolescents enjoying their time near the lagoon's edge. Their nude bodies remind us that this scene captures not only nature's beauty but also human life in all its simplicity and innocence. As we delve deeper into this photograph's details, we are reminded of Kerala's diverse population and rich cultural tapestry. The presence of Indians belonging to various ethnic groups adds depth to our understanding of anthropology, ethnography, folklore - elements that shape societies across generations. Through Folco Quilici's lens, we are transported back in time to witness this enchanting moment frozen forever in history. This print serves as a visual reminder that even decades later, Kerala continues to captivate with its breathtaking landscapes and vibrant culture.
