EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Abyssinian War September 1935" takes us back to a significant moment in history. The image showcases Abyssinian soldiers, standing tall and determined, in the trenches on the Ogadan front. It is evident that these brave warriors lack essential protective gear such as steel helmets, gas masks, and modern weapons to counter the advancing Italian forces. The photograph captures the harsh realities of war during this tumultuous period. With rifles held firmly in their hands and bandoliers across their chests, these courageous soldiers embody resilience and unwavering commitment to defending their homeland. Their bare feet stand firm on African soil as they aim with precision at an unseen enemy. George Greenwell's lens skillfully freezes this poignant scene from the 1930s onto paper. The black-and-white composition adds depth and intensity to the image, emphasizing both the strength of character displayed by these Abyssinian troops and the gravity of their situation. As we gaze upon this historical artifact, we are reminded of Ethiopia's struggle for independence against foreign aggression. This photograph serves as a testament to human endurance amidst adversity while shedding light on a chapter often overlooked in mainstream narratives.
