EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph titled "Me-Scia-u. A Red Army soldier in school" captured by the talented photographer Folco Quilici in 1969, we are transported to a significant moment in China's history. The image portrays a young Red Army soldier immersed in his studies within the walls of a classroom. The soldier, known as Me-Scia-u, stands out amidst his peers with an air of determination and purpose. His uniform proudly displays the emblematic red star, symbolizing his allegiance to the Communist Party and commitment to serving his country. Despite being surrounded by textbooks and educational materials, it is evident that Me-Scia-u remains ever vigilant for any potential threats or challenges that may arise. Quilici's composition beautifully captures both the solemnity of war and the pursuit of knowledge intertwined within this single frame. The juxtaposition between military duty and education speaks volumes about China's revolutionary era during which soldiers were not only warriors but also students striving for intellectual growth. The date of this photograph holds particular significance as it falls right at the peak of China's Cultural Revolution when Chairman Mao Zedong sought to eradicate traditional values while promoting communist ideology throughout society. This image serves as a poignant reminder of how individuals like Me-Scia-u played an integral role in shaping China's future through their unwavering dedication to both their military duties and academic pursuits. Folco Quilici has masterfully frozen this fleeting moment in time, allowing us to reflect upon the complexities inherent within one man's life during such tumultuous times. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Alinari, we cannot help but be moved by its historical context while marveling at its timeless beauty.
