EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Shanghai. Local market" takes us on a nostalgic journey back to the bustling streets of China's enchanting city, Shanghai. Captured by the talented photographer Quilici, Folco in 1974, this image offers a glimpse into the vibrant local market scene that once thrived in this metropolis. The photograph transports us to a different era, where traditional Chinese architecture and culture were still deeply rooted in everyday life. The composition beautifully frames the chaotic yet harmonious atmosphere of the marketplace. Rows upon rows of small stalls line both sides of narrow alleyways, displaying an array of colorful fruits, vegetables, spices, and other exotic goods. As we delve deeper into the image's details, we notice people from all walks of life engaging in lively conversations with vendors or carefully inspecting products before making their purchases. Their expressions reflect curiosity and determination as they navigate through this maze-like market filled with tantalizing aromas and vibrant sights. Quilici's masterful use of light and shadow adds depth to each element within the frame. The play between sunlight filtering through makeshift canopies creates intriguing patterns on faces and objects alike. This interplay between light and darkness further emphasizes the dynamic nature of this ancient trade hub. Looking at this photograph today evokes a sense of nostalgia for a time when globalization had not yet fully transformed our world; it reminds us how local markets were once central to communities' livelihoods worldwide. It serves as a testament to Shanghai's rich history while also highlighting its enduring spirit amidst rapid modernization. In essence, Quilici's "Shanghai. Local market" encapsulates not only an extraordinary moment frozen in time but also invites viewers to appreciate cultural heritage preserved within these bustling markets that have long been integral parts of cities like Shanghai
