EDITORS COMMENTS
Capturing the eternal city from a perspective rarely seen, this print titled "Rome. From the sky. Suburbs to the southeast of Rome" takes us on an aerial journey over the sprawling suburbs that lie to the southeast of Rome's historic center. Taken in 1974 by renowned Italian photographer Folco Quilici, this mesmerizing image offers a unique glimpse into the ever-evolving landscape of Italy's capital. From high above, we are granted an extraordinary vantage point that reveals a tapestry of intersecting roads, clusters of buildings, and patches of greenery stretching as far as the eye can see. The intricate network of streets resembles veins pulsating with life, connecting neighborhoods and communities nestled within this vast urban expanse. The composition is bathed in warm sunlight, casting long shadows that accentuate each contour and detail below. As our eyes wander across this panoramic view, we witness how ancient ruins coexist harmoniously with modern structures; remnants from centuries past stand proudly amidst contemporary dwellings—a testament to Rome's rich history seamlessly intertwined with its present. Quilici masterfully captures not only physical landscapes but also emotions through his lens. This photograph evokes a sense of awe and wonder at humanity's ability to shape its environment while simultaneously being shaped by it. It invites contemplation about our place within these bustling metropolises—tiny specks in an expansive universe yet capable of leaving indelible marks upon time itself. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece by Quilici from Alinari—the esteemed photography archive—we are reminded that even familiar places can reveal hidden beauty when viewed from unexpected angles. Through his artistry and technical prowess, he immortalizes a moment suspended between past and present—an invitation for us all to marvel at Rome's enduring allure.
