EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures the symbol of The Fasces, an axe tied to a bundle of sticks, which was originally used by Ancient Roman magistrates as a representation of their authority. However, in the 20th century, this emblem was adopted by the Italian Fascists under the leadership of Benito Mussolini.
The image is taken from "Mussolini e il Facismo" in Rome, 1929, during a time when Italy was celebrating the rise of their dictator. This iconic symbol became synonymous with dictatorship and oppression as it represented strength through unity - each stick representing individual power coming together to form one unbreakable force.
The stark contrast between the historical significance of The Fasces and its transformation into a tool for fascist propaganda is both striking and unsettling. It serves as a reminder of how symbols can be manipulated and twisted to serve political agendas.
As we reflect on this image, we are reminded of the dangers that come with blindly following charismatic leaders who promise strength and unity at any cost. It stands as a cautionary tale against allowing authoritarianism to take hold in society.
Overall, this print serves as a chilling reminder of the dark chapters in history where symbols like The Fasces were used to justify tyranny and oppression.
