EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historic moment as "The Duce". Benito Mussolini welcomes five aviators at an airport in Central Italy. The aviators, who had just completed a remarkable journey from Italy to Japan and back, were greeted with open arms by the fascist dictator. Clad in his uniform as the First Marshal of the Empire, Mussolini embraced Lieutenant Colonel Moscatelli, the chief of the crew. The aviators had accomplished an incredible feat, flying a Savoia-Marchetti airplane equipped with three powerful Alfa Romeo engines over a total distance of twenty-six thousand kilometers. Their six-stage journey took them through various countries and landscapes, showcasing their skill and determination. In this image, we see Mussolini hugging Moscatelli and his men who have arrived looking sharp in impeccable blue uniforms. The significance of this embrace goes beyond mere congratulations; it symbolizes the pride and admiration for these brave pilots who pushed boundaries during World War II. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back to that momentous day when aviation history was made. It serves as a reminder not only of human achievement but also of the power that dictators like Mussolini held during those tumultuous times. This image is a testament to courage, innovation, and the indomitable spirit that drives us forward even in times of conflict.
