EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the essence of serenity and spirituality on the Island of San Giulio. Taken in 1973 by renowned photographer Quilici, Folco, this close-up shot focuses on the Mater Ecclesiae Monastery, a magnificent architectural masterpiece. Situated on Lake Orta in Novara, Italy, this image showcases not only the monastery's intricate structure but also its idyllic location. The island itself is accessible only by boat, emphasizing its seclusion from the bustling mainland. This photograph beautifully portrays both transportation aspects with a glimpse of a naval vessel docked near the shore. The religious significance of this place is palpable as one gazes upon the Mater Ecclesiae Monastery. A symbol of Christian devotion and dedication to God's work, it stands tall against an urban backdrop that contrasts with its tranquil surroundings. The village nestled nearby adds charm to this spiritual haven. As we take in this breathtaking landscape view from above, we are reminded of nature's splendor surrounding us. The panorama captured here offers an aerial perspective that allows us to appreciate not just the monastery but also the beauty of Lake Orta and its picturesque countryside. Quilici's mastery behind the lens truly shines through in this bird's eye view photograph. His ability to capture both grandeur and intimacy within a single frame is evident here as he immortalizes this timeless scene for all to admire. This print serves as a reminder that there are places where time seems to stand still – where architecture meets spirituality amidst natural wonders. It invites viewers into a world far removed from their own while igniting curiosity about what lies beyond these monastery walls.
