EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful and evocative image captures the moment of chaos and destruction as Ethiopian cavalrymen are attacked from above by Italian aircraft during the Italian-Ethiopian War of 1936. The historical significance of this photograph lies in its documentation of a pivotal moment in the conflict, which marked a turning point in the Italian conquest of Ethiopia. Italy, under the leadership of Benito Mussolini, had invaded Ethiopia in October 1935, with the intention of expanding its colonial empire in Africa. The Ethiopian army, led by Emperor Haile Selassie, put up fierce resistance, utilizing a combination of infantry, cavalry, and irregular forces. However, the Italian military possessed a significant technological advantage, with their modern aircraft and artillery giving them an edge in the air and on the ground. In this photograph, Ethiopian cavalrymen are seen in disarray as they are targeted by Italian aircraft. The horses rear and buck as their riders attempt to evade the hail of bullets and bombs raining down from above. The scene is one of desperation and despair, as the outdated weapons and tactics of the Ethiopian forces are no match for the advanced technology of the Italians. The Italian-Ethiopian War ended in May 1936 with the surrender of Emperor Haile Selassie and the Italian occupation of Ethiopia. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the human cost of war and the devastating impact of technological superiority on the battlefield. It is a testament to the resilience and determination of the Ethiopian people in the face of overwhelming adversity and a significant moment in the history of Africa.
