EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1965 by Quilici Folco, transports us to the bustling streets of Delhi, India. The image showcases an Indian man with a bicycle on the side of the road, capturing a moment frozen in time. The man stands proudly beside his trusty bicycle, which serves as both a means of transportation and a symbol of freedom. His turban adorns his head with elegance, reflecting his cultural heritage and adding to the richness of this scene. Whether civilian or military in nature, his headdress exudes an air of dignity. In the background, we see architectural elements that define Delhi's unique charm - arches and decorative sections that tell stories from centuries past. These structures stand tall against the backdrop of a vibrant cityscape. As our gaze shifts towards the foreground, we notice other details that contribute to this vivid tableau. A bus passes by in motion; its presence adds dynamism to an otherwise still frame. Lush trees and vegetation provide contrast against concrete surroundings while reminding us of nature's resilience amidst urban chaos. This portrait not only captures one individual but also represents larger themes such as anthropology and ethnography - showcasing aspects of Indian culture through fashion choices and modes of transportation. Quilici Folco's lens has immortalized this slice-of-life moment forever – offering us a glimpse into everyday life in Delhi during 1965. It is photographs like these that allow us to travel back in time and appreciate different cultures while celebrating shared humanity across borders.
