EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historic moment in 1941, showcasing the meeting between Haile Selassie, Emperor of Ethiopia, and General Sir Alan Gordon Cunningham. The image showcases two powerful figures standing outdoors against the backdrop of an uncertain time during World War II. Haile Selassie, restored to the throne on May 5th, is dressed in traditional attire while General Cunningham dons his military uniform and helmet. Their handshake symbolizes an agreement that holds immense significance for both Abyssinia and the world at large. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth to this portrait from a bygone era. Published in The War Illustrated: Volume 4 edited by Sir John Hammerton, this photograph serves as a testament to courage and resilience amidst conflict. As we delve into this snapshot frozen in time, it becomes evident that it represents more than just two individuals coming together; it embodies hope for peace and restoration. This print reminds us of the struggles faced during World War II but also highlights moments of unity that transcend boundaries. Preserved by The Print Collector29 under the publishing house Amalgamated Press Ltd. , this image carries with it not only historical value but also serves as a reminder of our shared humanity even in times of war.
