EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - the Regent of Abyssinia departing from St Paul's Cathedral. The image, taken on 10th July 1924, transports us back to the early twentieth century, between the wars era. It is a powerful representation of cultural exchange and diplomacy between Europe and Ethiopia. The Regent, Emperor Haile Selassie of Ethiopia, stands tall as he leaves the grandeur of St Paul's Cathedral behind him. His regal presence commands attention against the backdrop of this iconic European landmark. This photograph serves as a reminder that even in an era marked by political tensions and conflicts, moments of unity and understanding can be found. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth to this historical snapshot, emphasizing the gravity of the occasion. As we gaze upon this ethereal image captured by Central News agency, we are transported to a time when photography was still emerging as an art form. This extraordinary piece from TopFoto's collection showcases not only their commitment to preserving important historical moments but also highlights their dedication to sharing these treasures with audiences worldwide through Europeana Photography project. Let us appreciate this remarkable visual testament to cross-cultural connections that transcend borders and time itself.
