EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Barges out of service, Genoa" transports us back to the bustling port city of Genoa in 1973. The image captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing an array of majestic barges resting idly along the pier. The architectural beauty and structural integrity of these naval and river vessels are on full display. Each barge exudes a sense of strength and purpose, their weathered exteriors hinting at a rich history filled with countless journeys across vast seas. These magnificent structures stand as silent witnesses to the ceaseless movement that defines this vibrant port. The landscape surrounding the barges is equally breathtaking. A sweeping seascape stretches out before our eyes, merging seamlessly with the horizon. The tranquil sea sparkles under the gentle sunlight, inviting us to imagine its depths teeming with life and adventure. From this aerial view or bird's eye perspective captured by Quilici Folco, we gain a unique vantage point that allows us to appreciate not only the grandeur of these barges but also their significance within this maritime world. They represent more than just objects; they symbolize a method of transportation deeply intertwined with human civilization since ancient times. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing scene, it becomes evident that there is something poetic about these seemingly abandoned vessels against such a picturesque backdrop. Perhaps they are taking a well-deserved respite from their arduous duties or awaiting new adventures yet to come. Quilici Folco's masterful composition invites us into his world—a world where architecture meets nature, where structure merges harmoniously with landscapes both man-made and natural. This photograph serves as an enduring testament to the timeless allure of transportation by water—where fishing boats dance alongside mighty barges—and leaves us yearning for our own journey through time aboard one of these remarkable vessels.
