FVQ-F-183572-0000 - A Historic Moment in Fiume's Occupation
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photograph captured by Betti Luigi on May 10,1920, we are transported back to a significant event during the occupation of Fiume by Italian legionary troops. The image depicts a solemn consignment ceremony where a group of people gathers to witness the symbolic transfer of a flag from Italian soldiers to the city. The central figure in this snapshot is Gabriele D'Annunzio, an influential leader who spearheaded the occupation. Adorned in military attire with his distinctive beret, D'Annunzio commands attention as he stands amidst fellow soldiers and civilians alike. Their clothing reflects the fashion trends of that era, showcasing both military uniforms and civilian garments. The atmosphere exudes patriotism and reverence as participants engage in verbal rapport while holding instruments and insignias associated with their roles within society. The presence of the flag serves as a powerful emblem representing unity and national pride. Beyond capturing this historic moment, Luigi skillfully frames the scene against the backdrop of Fiume's streetscape. Through his lens, we catch glimpses of bustling activity hinting at life beyond this ceremonial occasion. This view offers us insight into Italy's contemporary history – its territories, populations, and political events that shaped its destiny. Luigi's print transports us back to an important chapter in Italy's past when fervor for change was palpable on these very streets. It immortalizes not just an event but also captures emotions tied to hope for progress amidst uncertain times. This remarkable piece from Alinari allows us to reflect upon our shared history while reminding us how pivotal moments shape nations – forever etching themselves into our collective memory.
