EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph taken circa 1919, two little girls, dressed in simple yet elegant clothing typical of the 1920s, playfully interact in the bustling street of Fiume, a historic seaport city located in the Free State of Fiume (now Rijeka, Croatia). The girls' carefree expressions belie the political turmoil that engulfed the city during that time. The backdrop of the image is adorned with a series of patriotic Italian posters, which pay homage to Gabriele D'Annunzio, an Italian poet, journalist, and politician who seized control of the city in 1919. These posters, with their bold typography and vivid colors, add an intriguing layer of historical context to the scene. Fiume, a vital European port city, had been a subject of territorial disputes between Italy and Austria-Hungary before the First World War. After the war, D'Annunzio, with the support of Italian nationalists, led a military intervention and established the Free State of Fiume, which existed from 1919 to 1924. The city became a symbol of Italian irredentism, a movement advocating for the unification of Italian-speaking territories. The girls' innocent frolic in the midst of the politically charged atmosphere highlights the resilience and adaptability of everyday life in a time of upheaval. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a moment in history when the world was undergoing significant change. Today, the buildings and streets of Fiume continue to tell the story of this fascinating period, standing as a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Europe.
