EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "FVQ-F-183568-0000" captures a significant moment in history as Gabriele D'Annunzio extends his hand to shake that of a soldier on a road in Fiume. The year is 1920, during the occupation of the city by part of the legionary troops. Surrounding them, a diverse group of people watches intently, their faces reflecting curiosity and perhaps admiration. Gabriele D'Annunzio, renowned poet and advocate for humanistic disciplines, stands tall with an infectious smile on his face. His presence exudes charisma and intellectual depth as he engages in this encounter with the soldier. This photograph beautifully encapsulates both physiological and psychological aspects - capturing not only their physical interaction but also hinting at deeper emotional connections between individuals from different walks of life. The soldier's military attire contrasts sharply with D'Annunzio's fashionable clothing choice - a beret adorning his head. This headdress serves as both a civilian accessory and religious symbol, adding an intriguing layer to this scene. Beyond its portrayal of these two figures engaged in verbal rapport, this image offers us glimpses into society and politics during Italy's contemporary history. It provides us with insights into populations, territories, events, and even street scenes within Fiume. Betti Luigi skillfully captured this historic moment through his lens from Alinari Studios. The composition allows viewers to feel immersed in the scene while simultaneously appreciating its wider context within Italian history. As we gaze upon this remarkable portrait frozen in time on August 15th, 1920 – we are reminded of the power that individual actions can have on shaping our collective destiny.
