EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "An Italian Gondar" takes us back to a significant moment in history. The image showcases an ancient imperial castle, now adorned with the Tricolor flag, serving as a symbol of normality and hope amidst the aftermath of war. In front of this majestic backdrop, we witness the revival of daily life for the indigenous people who were once plagued by Abyssinian looting. The market scene depicted here is bustling with activity and prosperity. Women and men stand proudly behind their stalls, offering an array of goods that reflect both African traditions and Italian influence. Baskets filled with fresh produce are ready to be sold, while customers eagerly browse through the offerings. It's evident that this market has become more vibrant than ever before due to the presence of Italian troops. The collaboration between Italians and Africans in this colonial setting creates a unique blend of cultures, where flags from both nations fly side by side. Beltrame Achille's masterful illustration captures not only the physical landscape but also conveys a sense of resilience and unity among these diverse communities. This print serves as a powerful reminder that even in times of conflict, humanity can find ways to rebuild and thrive together.
