EDITORS COMMENTS
After the reconquest of Tarhuna, a powerful image captures the solemnity and triumph of this historical moment. In this colour lithograph by Achille Beltrame, we witness the transportation of Colonel Billia's remains to Tripoli amidst a grand military procession. The year is 1923, and Libya has just been reclaimed from foreign occupation. The scene unfolds with precision and detail. A convoy of cars drives along a dusty road, carrying soldiers in traditional colonial dress. They are accompanied by cavalrymen on horseback, their flags proudly waving in the wind. The atmosphere is one of both celebration and remembrance as they honor their fallen comrade. Beltrame's skillful illustration brings life to every element within the composition - from the determined expressions on the faces of officers to the majestic presence of horses marching alongside automobiles. This juxtaposition symbolizes Italy's modernization efforts while paying homage to its rich history. The print not only captures a significant moment in time but also serves as a reminder of Italy's imperial ambitions in North Africa during this era. It reflects both power and vulnerability as troops reclaim their land while being mindful of local Bedouin traditions. This artwork transports us back to an important chapter in history when nations fought for dominance over territories. It reminds us that even amidst conflict, there can be moments where bravery and unity shine through.
