EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph titled "Line of tourists at the ferry" taken by renowned photographer Folco Quilici in 1968, we are transported back in time to witness a moment frozen in history. The image captures a bustling scene at an Egyptian ferry, where a long line of eager tourists patiently awaits their turn to embark on an unforgettable journey. The composition is strikingly powerful as it showcases the diversity and excitement that travel can bring. A myriad of individuals from different walks of life stand side by side, united by their shared desire for exploration and discovery. Each person exudes anticipation, with eyes filled with wonderment and hearts brimming with curiosity. The setting itself adds another layer of intrigue to the photograph. The ancient land of Egypt has always been shrouded in mystique and allure, attracting countless adventurers throughout the ages. As these travelers prepare to board the ferry, one can almost feel the palpable energy emanating from them - a mix of eagerness, awe, and respect for this timeless destination. Quilici's masterful use of light and shadow further enhances the atmosphere captured within this frame. The stark contrast between bright sunlight illuminating some faces while others remain partially obscured creates an air of mystery surrounding each individual's story. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Alinari's collection, we cannot help but be reminded that travel transcends time; it connects us across generations through our innate human desire to explore new horizons. This photograph serves as a testament to our eternal fascination with venturing into uncharted territories – both physically and metaphorically – forever seeking knowledge about ourselves and our world.
