EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Sinai. Details and all of the tomb of a holy man and the cemetery in the desert of Sinai" transports us to the mystical landscapes of Egypt's Sinai Peninsula. Taken in 1987 by renowned photographer Quilici, Folco, this image encapsulates both the serenity and profound spirituality that permeates this ancient land. The photograph showcases intricate details of a tomb belonging to a revered holy man, standing as a testament to centuries-old traditions and beliefs. The delicate carvings on its stone walls tell stories untold, while time-worn inscriptions whisper secrets lost to history. As we gaze upon this sacred resting place, we are reminded of the countless souls who sought solace within these hallowed grounds. Surrounding the tomb is an expansive cemetery nestled amidst the vastness of Sinai's desert landscape. Here lie generations past, their final resting places marked by simple gravestones adorned with weathered symbols and heartfelt tributes. This solemn burial ground evokes contemplation about life's transience and our shared mortality. Quilici masterfully captures not only these tangible elements but also manages to convey an intangible sense of reverence through his lens. The soft hues cast by sunlight filtering through clouds create an ethereal atmosphere that seems suspended between heaven and earth. As we immerse ourselves in this photograph from Alinari's collection, we are transported back in time – drawn into a world where faith intertwines with nature's grandeur. It serves as a poignant reminder that even amid desolation, there exists beauty worth cherishing; even among ruins lies enduring spiritual significance. Through Quilici's lens, we witness not just an archaeological site or mere remnants from antiquity but rather glimpses into humanity’s eternal quest for meaning beyond mortal existence - forever etched onto photographic paper for us to contemplate upon today
