EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Italian Kindness" captures a heartwarming scene that took place in Rome on the day of Saint Francis, the protector of animals. The image showcases a highly educational ceremony where a thousand captive birds were released back into freedom by the Balilla and Little Italians, in front of an audience of thousands. The birds had been taken as part of illegal hunting activities but were rescued by the Zoophile Society. Now, they are being returned to their natural habitat, much to the joy and delight of their flights. The children participating in this event can be seen wearing school uniforms, representing various societies and associations dedicated to wildlife conservation. In this momentous occasion, Italian kindness shines through as these young boys and girls come together to release these beautiful creatures back into nature. The print beautifully captures the innocence and compassion displayed by these children as they set free several species of birds. The image not only highlights Italy's commitment to protecting its wildlife but also serves as a reminder for all nations about our responsibility towards preserving nature's beauty. It is truly an inspiring sight that reminds us how acts of kindness can make a significant impact on our environment. This remarkable photograph was captured by Achille Beltrame (1871-1945) and is now part of a private collection. Its vibrant colors bring life to this extraordinary moment in history when Italian children united for a noble cause – giving wings back to those who had lost them.
