EDITORS COMMENTS
Hail to the Emperor! Haile Selassie, the revered ruler of Ethiopia from 1930 to 1974, stands tall and regal in this sepia-toned portrait captured around 1917. With an air of authority surrounding him, he exudes power and wisdom beyond his years. Donning a magnificent crown atop his head and adorned in a majestic royal robe, Emperor Selassie commands attention with his presence alone. His well-groomed beard and distinguished moustache add to his dignified appearance, while his piercing gaze suggests a deep understanding of the responsibilities that come with leadership. In this early photograph, we catch a glimpse of Ras Tafari Makonnen before he ascended to become Emperor Haile Selassie. Holding binoculars in hand, one can imagine him surveying the vast Ethiopian landscape with great vision and foresight. It is no wonder that he would go on to lead his country through tumultuous times as it faced external threats and internal challenges. This print serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of Haile Selassie - an icon who inspired not only Ethiopians but also people around the world. His reign left an indelible mark on history as he fought for justice, equality, and progress both within Ethiopia's borders and on global platforms. Let us remember this remarkable leader whose name will forever be associated with strength, resilience, and unwavering commitment to his beloved nation.
