EDITORS COMMENTS
The vibrant color litho print captures a moment of excitement and patriotism as General Mambretti eagerly awaits the delivery of the new flag. With his pith helmet on, he stands tall and shouts with determination, "I want to be the first to kiss her!". The scene takes place during the Italo-Turkish War in Derna, where the 57th infantry is stationed. As an Italian officer in charge of colonial troops, General Mambretti's enthusiasm reflects his deep sense of national pride and imperialistic ambitions. The illustration showcases not only his desire to be at the forefront of this symbolic act but also highlights Italy's growing presence in Africa. Surrounded by fellow soldiers saluting and riding horses, Mambretti's commanding presence is evident. The flags fluttering in the background symbolize both Italian patriotism and their conquests within Ottoman territories. Beltrame Achille masterfully brings this historical moment to life through detailed illustrations that capture every nuance. This artwork serves as a reminder of Europe's involvement in conflicts across continents during this era. The image evokes emotions ranging from admiration for bravery to contemplation about imperialism's consequences. It invites viewers to reflect on themes such as nationalism, power dynamics between nations, and cultural clashes amidst war-torn landscapes. Overall, this print offers a glimpse into history while igniting curiosity about past events that shaped our world today.
