EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph captured by the talented photographer Quilici, Folco, we are transported to Lower Juba in Somalia during the year 1972. The image showcases a simple yet profound artifact that holds immense significance for a Somaian shepherd - a headrest. The headrest takes center stage in this composition, standing tall against the backdrop of an unknown landscape. Its weathered appearance tells tales of countless nights spent under starry skies while tending to flocks on vast plains. This unassuming object serves as the sole companion and essential baggage for sleep for these resilient shepherds. As we gaze upon this print from Alinari, our imagination begins to wander into the lives of those who rely on such humble possessions. We can almost feel their connection with nature and their deep-rooted bond with their ancestral lands. Quilici's mastery lies not only in capturing a still moment frozen in time but also in evoking emotions through his lens. Through his artistry, he immortalizes fragments of human existence that might otherwise go unnoticed or forgotten. This photograph is a testament to the power of simplicity and resilience amidst challenging circumstances. It reminds us that true fulfillment often lies not within material possessions but rather within our ability to adapt and find solace even with just one essential item like this headrest. As we contemplate this remarkable image, let it serve as an inspiration to embrace life's essentials wholeheartedly while appreciating the beauty found within simplicity itself - just like how these Somaian shepherds have done for generations past.
