EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Italians Seize Corfu" takes us back to a significant moment in history, specifically the 1st of September 1923. The image showcases a typical street in Corfu known as Calles Spiridione, which exudes an undeniable charm even amidst tumultuous times. However, what truly catches the eye is a figure standing prominently in the foreground, bearing an uncanny resemblance to a London policeman. The photograph captures the essence of this pivotal event when Italian forces seized control of the Greek island of Corfu. It serves as a poignant reminder of Europe's complex political landscape during the early twentieth century. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth and intensity to every detail within the frame, highlighting both architectural beauty and human presence. As we delve into this snapshot frozen in time by Central News, we are transported back to an era filled with tension and uncertainty. This powerful visual narrative invites us to reflect on historical events that shaped our world today
