EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant lithograph captures a scene from the Ogaden campaign, showcasing the resourcefulness and bravery of the Dubats soldiers. Led by officers, they navigate through a flooded plain using ingeniously improvised rafts or swimming across, defying the lurking danger of crocodiles. The illustration was originally published in Courier Sunday on December 15th, 1935. The image transports us to an African landscape where soldiers cross rivers and tribes coexist with wildlife. It depicts a crucial moment in history when colonial powers sought to achieve their goals in the Ogaden region. The Dubats soldiers represent an imperial force crossing boundaries and facing challenges head-on. Beltrame Achille's artistic skills come alive as he skillfully portrays every detail - from the fighters punting boats to tribes observing this extraordinary sight. The lush green countryside serves as a backdrop for this battle between man and nature. This print not only showcases military strategy but also highlights Africa's rich cultural heritage. It reminds us of Arab civilization's influence in Sudan and Somalia while emphasizing tribal communities' resilience amidst conflict. Bridgeman Images has preserved this artwork that encapsulates both historical significance and artistic brilliance. As we admire this piece, we are reminded of the courage exhibited by those who fought during the Ogaden campaign, leaving behind an enduring legacy for future generations to appreciate.
