This powerful and historically significant print captures the intense Battle of Adowa, a pivotal event in Ethiopian history where Menelik's forces successfully defeated the invading Italian army. The image showcases Brigadier General Dabormidas troops facing fierce resistance as they march towards their enemy, highlighting the bravery and determination of both sides during this brutal conflict.
The scene is filled with tension and drama, as soldiers from both armies clash in a desperate struggle for victory.
