EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Taormina: 'Isola bella' (beautiful island)" by Quilici, Folco takes us on a visual journey to the stunning coastal town of Taormina. The photograph, captured in 1970, showcases the breathtaking beauty of Isola Bella, an enchanting island just off the coast. From a bird's eye view perspective, we are treated to a mesmerizing landscape seascape that instantly transports us into this idyllic Mediterranean setting. The crystal-clear turquoise waters surrounding Isola Bella create a striking contrast against the rugged coastline and verdant hills that frame it. The composition of this image is truly remarkable as it perfectly captures the essence of both tranquility and grandeur. As our gaze follows the curving shoreline, we can't help but be drawn towards Isola Bella itself – a small piece of paradise seemingly untouched by time. Its lush vegetation and sandy shores invite us to imagine ourselves basking in its natural splendor. Aerial view photography allows us to appreciate not only the physical beauty but also understand how Isola Bella harmoniously blends with its surroundings. From this vantage point, we witness birds gracefully soaring above the island's rocky cliffs while others find solace perched on tree branches or gliding over gentle waves. Quilici's masterful use of light further enhances every element within this photograph - from shadows dancing across jagged rocks to sun-kissed treetops casting their golden glow upon nature's canvas. It is through his lens that we can almost feel the warm sea breeze caressing our skin and hear distant sounds of crashing waves echoing in our ears. In summary, Quilici's photographic masterpiece encapsulates Taormina's allure through an aerial viewpoint capturing Isola Bella’s serene charm amidst its picturesque surroundings. This timeless artwork serves as an invitation for viewers to immerse themselves in nature’s wonders and experience firsthand why Taormina and Isola Bella are truly treasures of the Mediterranean.
