EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us to the picturesque Forlinese countryside, where history and nature seamlessly intertwine. Taken in 1968 by the talented photographer Quilici, Folco, this image showcases the enduring legacy of Roman times that still lingers in this idyllic landscape. As we gaze upon this aerial view from a bird's eye perspective, our eyes are immediately drawn to the intricate patterns etched into the land below. These visible marks are none other than the ancient "centuriatio" a system of land division implemented by Romans for agricultural purposes. It is truly remarkable how these centuries-old structures have withstood the test of time and remain intact even after so many years. The vast fields stretch out before us, meticulously cultivated and nurtured by generations of farmers who have called this place home. The lush greenery paints a serene picture as farmland merges seamlessly with countryside, creating an enchanting vista that captivates both heart and mind. Beyond its historical significance, this photograph also captures the essence of country life – simple yet profound. It evokes images of hardworking farmers tending to their crops under clear blue skies while embracing a deep connection with nature. Quilici's masterful composition allows us to immerse ourselves fully in this breathtaking scene; it invites contemplation and reflection on our own relationship with nature and heritage. This print serves as a timeless reminder that amidst modern advancements, there is beauty in preserving traditions and honoring our past. Whether you find solace in contemplating landscapes or appreciate glimpses into history's embrace on present-day existence, this stunning image offers an opportunity for introspection while celebrating both natural beauty and human ingenuity.
