EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Abyssinian War September 1935" transports us back to a significant moment in history. The image showcases the resilience and determination of irregular soldiers from the peasant army as they push their lorry across the river Harrer near Djigjiga, on their way to the Ogadan front. Taken by George Greenwell in the 1930s, this photograph captures a scene filled with both hardship and bravery. In an era marked by war and conflict, these courageous soldiers navigate through challenging terrain in Ethiopia's countryside. Their faces reflect unwavering resolve as they work together to overcome obstacles during this crucial river crossing. The significance of this image lies not only in its portrayal of military action but also in its representation of Africa's struggle for independence. As Abyssinia (modern-day Ethiopia) faced invasion during the Abyssinian War, these irregular soldiers fought valiantly against foreign forces seeking control over their land. Greenwell's composition skillfully frames the scene, emphasizing both the natural beauty surrounding them and the human spirit that drives them forward. This historical snapshot serves as a poignant reminder of those who sacrificed everything for freedom and justice. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Memory Lane Prints, we are reminded of how photographs have an incredible power to transport us through time and connect us with stories that shaped our world.
