EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - the simulation of a gas attack and the distribution of gas masks to the population of Osaka, Japan. The engraving, taken from "Le petit journal illustrious" in 1928, showcases the fear and urgency that gripped the city during this time. In this scene, we see an Asian street bustling with activity under the cover of night. A Japanese guard stands watchfully as an airplane hovers overhead, symbolizing both danger and protection. The press is present, documenting this pivotal event for future generations. The artist's meticulous attention to detail brings forth a sense of realism and tension. People anxiously line up to receive their gas masks, aware that their lives may depend on it. The engraver skillfully captures their expressions of concern and apprehension. This artwork serves as a reminder of the combat strategies employed during the 20th century and highlights how communities came together in times of crisis. It also emphasizes our vulnerability as humans when faced with unforeseen threats. Stefano Bianchetti's print immortalizes this historical moment while honoring those who lived through it. As we gaze upon this image today, let us reflect on our own capacity for resilience and unity in times of adversity.
