EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "FVQ-F-183610-0000" captures a momentous military parade that took place on the streets of Fiume. The image dates back to the period between December 9th, 1919 and December 11th, 1920 when the city was occupied by a faction of Italian legionary troops under the leadership of Gabriele D'Annunzio. In this striking scene, we witness an impressive display of power and unity as soldiers march alongside majestic horses. These terrestrial mammals add an element of grandeur to the composition, symbolizing strength and resilience. The pier in the background serves as a reminder that both naval and river transportation played crucial roles during this time. The architecture surrounding the parade route showcases the city's rich history while also highlighting its importance as a strategic location for military events. This particular occasion is undoubtedly significant, representing not only armed forces and military life but also society and politics at large. Amidst all these elements lies a soldier who stands tall with pride, embodying dedication to duty and service. His presence adds depth to this vivid street scene filled with action and anticipation. As our eyes wander beyond the immediate surroundings, we catch glimpses of Fiume's urban landscape—a view that encapsulates both its beauty and resilience in times of conflict. The fluttering flags proudly bear insignias emblematic of this official demonstration—an event etched into history. This remarkable photograph by Slocovich offers us a glimpse into a defining chapter in Fiume's past—one where bravery meets tradition against an ever-changing political backdrop. It reminds us how images can capture not just moments frozen in time but also stories waiting to be unraveled through their intricate details.
