EDITORS COMMENTS
Surrender to It: A Moment of Historical Significance in Ethiopia, 1935 This evocative image captures a pivotal moment in the history of Ethiopia, as a large Ethiopian force, taken aback by the unexpected arrival of the Italians, surrenders while watering their horses and camels in a verdant valley. The scene is set against the backdrop of a serene yet untamed landscape, with the sun casting long shadows over the undulating terrain. The year is 1935, and the Italian invasion of Ethiopia, also known as the Second Italo-Ethiopian War, is in full swing. The Ethiopian army, renowned for its bravery and resilience, had been holding out against the technologically superior Italian forces. However, the tide was turning, and this moment of surprise and submission would mark the beginning of the end for Ethiopian resistance. The Ethiopian soldiers, their faces etched with a mix of shock, exhaustion, and resignation, stand frozen in time as they watch the Italians approach. Their horses and camels, essential companions in the arid African terrain, are tethered nearby, their heads down, mirroring the submission of their masters. The valley, with its crystal-clear waters, becomes a symbol of the fleeting peace that precedes the storm. The stillness of the scene belies the turmoil that lies ahead, as the Italians press onward, determined to conquer this proud and ancient land. This powerful image, captured by an unknown photographer, offers a glimpse into a pivotal moment in African history, a moment of surrender that would forever change the course of Ethiopia and its people.
