EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Sahara: bivouac and camel nomads in the desert camp" captured by renowned photographer Quilici, Folco in 1987, we are transported to the mesmerizing landscapes of Egypt's Sahara Desert. The image beautifully encapsulates the essence of life amidst the vastness of this arid expanse. As our gaze falls upon the scene, we find ourselves immersed in a traditional desert camp bustling with activity. A group of camel nomads has set up their temporary abode known as a bivouac, forming an oasis within this barren terrain. The composition is filled with vibrant colors that contrast against the golden sand dunes and azure sky, creating a visual feast for our eyes. The focal point of the photograph lies on a cluster of camels resting peacefully under makeshift shelters made from woven fabrics and palm fronds. These majestic creatures have been loyal companions to these nomadic tribes for centuries, enabling them to traverse long distances across unforgiving terrains. Surrounding the camels are men clad in flowing robes adorned with intricate patterns, embodying their rich cultural heritage. Their weathered faces tell stories of resilience and wisdom acquired through generations living harmoniously with nature's challenges. Beyond capturing human presence, Quilici masterfully captures Mother Nature's grandeur as well. Towering sand dunes stretch endlessly into the horizon while delicate tufts of grass peek through cracks in parched earth—a testament to life's ability to thrive even under harsh conditions. This evocative photograph serves as a window into an ancient way of life that continues to persist despite modern advancements. It invites us to contemplate humanity's connection with nature and reflect on how these timeless traditions shape our understanding of existence itself.
