EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking print captures a pivotal moment in history, as the citizens of Addis Ababa are thrown into a state of panic by a false alarm of an Italian bomber attack in 1935. The tension and fear on their faces are palpable, reflecting the very real threat that Ethiopia faced during this turbulent time.
The image serves as a powerful reminder of the impact that historical events can have on ordinary people's lives. In this case, it is clear that the specter of war loomed large over Addis Ababa, leaving its residents vulnerable and afraid.
The Italian bombers hovering ominously in the sky serve as a stark symbol of aggression and violence, contrasting sharply with the peaceful streets below. It is easy to imagine the chaos and confusion that must have ensued as people scrambled for safety amidst the deafening roar of aircraft engines.
As we reflect on this photograph today, we are reminded not only of Ethiopia's struggle for independence but also of the resilience and courage shown by its citizens in times of crisis. It is a testament to their strength and determination in the face of adversity - qualities that continue to inspire us all.
