EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the iconic Emperor Haile Selassie of Ethiopia in all his regal splendor. Taken in 1935, during a time when Ethiopia faced external threats to its sovereignty, this image showcases Selassie's unwavering strength and leadership. Mounted on horseback, surrounded by a group of loyal guards, Selassie exudes an air of authority as he rides through the streets of Addis Ababa. His confident posture and determined gaze reflect his commitment to protect and guide his nation through challenging times. The composition beautifully highlights the contrast between Selassie's majestic presence and the bustling Ethiopian cityscape behind him. The architectural details serve as a reminder that even amidst modernization, tradition and heritage remain at the core of Ethiopian society under his rule. As one delves deeper into this portrait, it becomes evident that every element has been carefully chosen to convey a sense of power and resilience. The men accompanying Selassie symbolize loyalty and dedication while their uniforms represent orderliness within the empire. Granger Art on Demand has expertly preserved this historical moment for us to admire today. This photograph not only immortalizes Emperor Haile Selassie but also serves as a testament to Ethiopia's rich history and enduring spirit under his reign.
