EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - Italians at Gambela, Ethiopia in 1937. The Italian colors are proudly raised over Gambela airport, symbolizing the presence of Italian forces in Africa during this time period. This image is not just a snapshot of an event, but a window into the complex and often tumultuous relationship between Italy and Ethiopia.
The scene depicted in this photograph is both historical and powerful. It showcases the impact of colonialism on African nations like Ethiopia, as well as the boldness and ambition of Italian expansionism in Africa during the late 1930s. The raising of the Italian colors over Gambela airport represents more than just a military occupation; it signifies a clash of cultures, ideologies, and power dynamics that shaped the course of history.
Through this print from Mary Evans Picture Library, viewers are transported back to a pivotal moment in time when events were unfolding that would have far-reaching consequences for both Italy and Ethiopia. It serves as a reminder of how intertwined our world's histories truly are, and how important it is to remember and learn from these past events.
