EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Dreadful vendetta in Oggebbio, Italy" takes us back to a chilling moment in history. Captured by the French School in the 20th century, this colour litho depicts a scene of extreme violence and revenge. In an Italian village called Oggebbio, two rivals find themselves entangled in a dreadful vendetta. The image shows one man pouring petrol on his enemy, intending to burn him alive. The sheer horror and intensity of the situation is palpable as flames flicker around them. This illustration was originally created for Le Petit Journal on February 14,1909. The photograph not only captures the brutality of this particular act but also serves as a reminder of the deep-seated feuds that can plague communities. It speaks to the darker side of human nature and highlights how conflicts can escalate into unimaginable acts of violence. As we gaze upon this haunting image, we are transported to early 20th-century Italy where tensions ran high and rivalries were fierce. The flag fluttering in the background reminds us that this incident occurred within Europe's borders. Through this powerful visual representation, we are reminded of our shared humanity and the importance of seeking peaceful resolutions rather than resorting to such horrific acts. It serves as a stark reminder that even amidst picturesque landscapes like Oggebbio, darkness can lurk beneath the surface if left unchecked.
