The Regresses Of Civilization - A Powerful Protest Against Silos in the Port of Genoa
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, titled "The Regresses Of Civilization, The Violence Of The Wheat Dumpers Of The Port Of Genoa To Protest Against Silos" captures a moment of intense unrest and discontent. Taken by Achille Beltrame in 1904, this colour lithograph depicts a scene of chaos and destruction at the port. In the image, we see workers smashing containers and unloading tools as they riot against the silos that symbolize setbacks to civilization. Dockers and unloaders join forces with strikers to voice their grievances over grain control and food supply issues. Tugboats and boats stand idle amidst the turmoil, while wheat sheaves lay scattered on the ground. The composition is filled with tension as rioters clash with authorities in an act of defiance against oppressive conditions. This protest highlights not only economic disparities but also sheds light on larger social issues prevalent during that time period. Beltrame's artwork serves as a powerful reminder of historical struggles faced by Italian laborers fighting for better working conditions. It speaks volumes about their determination to challenge authority and demand change. "The Regresses Of Civilization" stands as a testament to human resilience in times of adversity, reminding us that even amid chaos, there is hope for progress towards a more just society.
