EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating colour lithograph by Achille Beltrame, depicting the arduous journey of workers and soldiers in building a connection between Amba Alagi and the imperial road beyond Quoram in Ethiopia. The print showcases the determination and resilience of those involved in this monumental task. The image portrays a scene filled with activity, as soldiers, workers, and Africans collaborate to push forward amidst rough Ethiopian slopes. The large advancing artillery becomes instrumental in opening up passage through the challenging mountain area. It highlights the significant role played by Italians in this colonial endeavor. The presence of soldier uniforms, heavy equipment, cars being towed or pushed, and howitzers being hauled emphasizes both military might and technological advancements during that era. This illustration was originally featured in Courier Sunday on 19th April 1936. Beltrame's attention to detail brings life to each element within the composition - from the intricate depiction of clothing worn by individuals to meticulously rendered vehicles navigating treacherous terrain. The artist skillfully captures not only physical exertion but also conveys an underlying sense of unity among diverse groups working towards a common goal. This remarkable print serves as a historical document showcasing Italy's efforts to expand its empire while shedding light on Ethiopia's resistance against colonization. "On the way to Dessie" stands as a testament to human perseverance amidst challenging circumstances and provides viewers with insight into an important chapter in African history.
