Twenty years ago, declared the war on May 24, the King, from the Quirinale, waves the tricolor. . . (colour litho) by Beltrame, Achille (1871-1945); Private Collection; © Look and Learn) In this print captured by Achille Beltrame in 1935, we are transported back to a momentous day in Italian history. Twenty years after declaring war on May 24th, King Victor stands proudly on the balcony of the Quirinale Palace as he waves Italy's tricolor flag. The atmosphere is electric with patriotism and excitement as Italians gather below to witness this historic event. Beside him stands his teenage son Prince Umberto who joins in the celebration by energetically waving his cap at the cheering crowd. Queen Elena can also be seen beside them, adding her regal presence to this joyous occasion. The image captures not only a royal family united but also a nation coming together to celebrate their homeland. The sea of flags held high by enthusiastic Italians reflects their unwavering loyalty and love for Italy. Beltrame's illustration beautifully depicts both the grandeur of royalty and the unity of its people during times of great tribulation. It serves as a reminder that even in moments of hardship and conflict, there is strength in national pride. This remarkable piece transports us back to a time when celebrations were shared among families gathered on balconies throughout Italy. It reminds us that amidst turmoil and uncertainty, it is important to come together as one nation.
