EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us back to a significant moment in history - the arrival of Negus Haile Selassie I's family in Haifa, Israel on May 8,1936. The image captures the palpable excitement and anticipation as crowds line the road either in Haifa or Jerusalem, eagerly awaiting the Ethiopian Emperor's loved ones. The scene is filled with an air of reverence and admiration for this esteemed royal family. People from all walks of life have gathered together to catch a glimpse of their beloved Negus' kin. The atmosphere is electric, with whispers of awe circulating through the crowd. Intriguingly, this historic event took place on British soil aboard the H. M. S. Enterprise - a symbol of international diplomacy and cooperation during that time. It serves as a reminder that even amidst political complexities, moments like these can bring people together in unity. The photograph itself exudes timeless elegance; its monochromatic tones lend it an ethereal quality that transports us back to this pivotal day over eight decades ago. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of both our shared humanity and our fascination with historical milestones. This Liszt Collection print not only preserves an important chapter in Israeli-Ethiopian relations but also invites us to reflect on how such events shape our understanding of cultural exchange and global interconnectedness throughout history.
