EDITORS COMMENTS
With the Italian advance towards Fezzan, about 600 kilometers in the interior of Libya, this color lithograph by Achille Beltrame captures a pivotal moment in history. The image depicts a column of Saharan fighters led by the Duke of Puglie and General Graziani's troops occupying the cool oasis of Brak. In their quest to reoccupy territories that had fallen under rebel rule since 1915, these Italian forces encountered resistance from local inhabitants who eventually submitted and handed over their weapons. The scene is filled with symbolism as rebel bullets lie piled up beneath towering palm trees, representing the triumph of imperial Italy over rebellion. The soldiers are dressed in traditional uniforms, reflecting both their African surroundings and their role as representatives of colonial power. Camels stand nearby, serving as loyal companions to these warriors on their mission to establish Italian occupation. Beltrame's attention to detail brings this battle scene to life, showcasing not only the confrontation between opposing forces but also capturing elements of botany and natural history within North Africa. This print serves as a testament to the government's determination and military prowess during this period. As we gaze upon this artwork today, it offers us a glimpse into an era when empires sought control over vast territories while highlighting the resilience and bravery displayed by both sides in times of conflict.
