EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The electric light and the cinema, of which the inhabitants of the Tiger ignored the existence, have arrived in Adua" by Achille Beltrame showcases a significant moment in history. The image depicts the arrival of electric light and cinema to Adua, a town where its residents were previously unaware of their existence. In this scene, we witness the astonishment and enthusiasm of indigenous people as they gather outdoors to watch a film about Italian land and sea maneuvers. Surrounding them on the hills are military camps with lighthouses illuminating their presence. It is an extraordinary sight that captures both cultural exchange and technological advancement. The photograph highlights not only the introduction of modernity but also how it captivates audiences from different backgrounds. Africans sit alongside Italians, all united in their curiosity for this new form of entertainment. The crowd's anticipation is palpable as they eagerly await what unfolds on screen. Beltrame's illustration for Courier Sunday on November 3rd, 1935 offers us a glimpse into an era when cinema was still considered a novelty in certain parts of Africa. This image serves as a testament to how art can bridge gaps between cultures while simultaneously documenting historical milestones. Through this photograph, we are reminded that even small moments like these can have profound impacts on society's collective memory. It stands as a tribute to progress and reminds us that technology has always had the power to bring people together across borders and boundaries.
