EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history, showcasing the Vice King of Ethiopia, Rodolfo Graziani, as he crosses Abyssinian territory. The illustration by Achille Beltrame from "La domenica del corriere" on September 26th, 1937, beautifully depicts this historical event. In this powerful image, we see Graziani leading his procession through the vast and rugged African landscape. His presence is commanding and dignified as he navigates the challenging terrain with determination. The flag of Italy proudly waves behind him, symbolizing the colonial ambitions of the time. The colors used in this engraving add depth and vibrancy to the scene. They evoke a sense of both awe and tension that surrounded this period in history. As viewers gaze upon this artwork, they are transported back to a time when European powers sought to exert their influence over African nations. This print serves as a reminder of the complex dynamics between colonizers and colonized peoples during the 20th century. It invites us to reflect on issues such as power imbalances, cultural appropriation, and resistance against oppressive forces. Stefano Bianchetti's preservation of this historical artifact allows us to engage with an important chapter in Ethiopian history while appreciating Beltrame's artistic talent. This image serves as a testament to both human resilience and our collective responsibility to learn from past mistakes for a more inclusive future.
