EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Medieval survivals in Abyssinia" transports us back to a bygone era in Africa. The image, captured by the talented Italian illustrator Achille Beltrame, showcases the traditional governing system of Abyssinia (now Ethiopia) during the early 20th century. In this vibrant lithograph, we witness an elder and leaders dressed in colorful African attire seated on a veranda. They are depicted administering justice while sitting in front of their homes, symbolizing the patriarchal system that governed their society. The steps leading up to the veranda serve as a reminder of hierarchy and respect within this ancient community. The scene captures a moment where someone is voicing a complaint or seeking justice from these respected figures. It highlights not only the administration of justice but also the importance placed on resolving disputes within their community. Beltrame's attention to detail brings to life every aspect of this African dwelling – from its unique architecture to its inhabitants' clothing and customs. This artwork provides us with valuable insight into Abyssinian traditions and customs that have survived through generations. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing print, we are transported back in time and reminded of Africa's rich cultural heritage. It serves as a testament to how tradition intertwines with governance and justice systems across different parts of our diverse world.
