EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant lithograph captures a significant moment in the history of Eritrea, depicting "The Civil Governors Journey To The Western Region Of The Eritrean Colony, The Chiefs Present Tributes". Created by Achille Beltrame in 1901, this artwork showcases the ceremonial journey of the Italian civil governor through the African colony. In this scene, we see the governor adorned in his distinctive helmet and uniform, symbolizing his authority as he travels on horseback. Accompanied by a cavalry regiment and armed forces, he is greeted by local chiefs who present him with tributes as a sign of homage and submission to Italian rule. The composition exudes a sense of tradition and cultural exchange. Villagers dressed in traditional attire line up along the path to witness this historic event. Horses play an essential role throughout the image – from racehorses to ponies and shire horses – representing both transportation means and symbols of power. Beltrame's attention to detail brings life to every element within the print. From parasols shielding individuals from Africa's scorching sun to soldiers donning helmets with visors ready for combat if necessary, each figure contributes to telling this story. "The Civil Governors Journey To The Western Region Of The Eritrean Colony" serves as a visual testament to Italy's imperial ambitions during that time period while also shedding light on East Africa's rich cultural heritage. This lithograph not only preserves historical events but also invites viewers into an era where colonial powers sought control over vast territories across Africa.
