EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "FVQ-F-183576-0000" captures a significant moment in history during the occupation of Fiume by Italian legionary troops. The focal point of the image is none other than Gabriele D'Annunzio, an acclaimed poet and leader of the troops. Standing alongside a group of officers, D'Annunzio attentively listens to the impassioned speech delivered by a civilian on a road in Fiume. The date etched onto this photograph is August 15th, 1920, marking it as a timeless relic from nearly a century ago. It offers us an intimate glimpse into the atmosphere and events that unfolded during this tumultuous period in Italy's history. D'Annunzio's presence exudes both charisma and authority as he stands tall amidst his fellow soldiers. His attire reflects his dual roles as both poet and soldier; donning military garb complete with insignias and emblems while sporting a bowler hat atop his head – an intriguing blend of fashion and function. The street scene captured here showcases not only D'Annunzio but also provides us with glimpses of everyday life in Fiume at that time. The view extends beyond the immediate action to reveal snippets of city life – buildings lining the streets, flags fluttering proudly overhead, all contributing to painting a vivid picture of this historic moment. Luigi Betti's masterful photography immortalizes this poignant scene forevermore. Through his lens, we are transported back to witness firsthand how society and politics intertwined during these turbulent times in Italy's contemporary history. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we cannot help but be reminded of the power held within photographs like these – capturing fleeting moments that shape nations, territories, and ultimately our collective human story.
