Anne Gauzes, Dante VacchiAngola 1961 - 1963

This series of photographs which are simple and humane, bring to light the atmosphere and shows the psychie approach under which war was met in one of our Provinces. While these photographs are true to facts, the spirit here is not of propaganda but rather one of honesty, of the calibre which always has characterized our endeavours and accomplishments throughout History, with due regards to military security, they represent our war! They show our soldiers in action, at sea, on land, and in the air, the white and the black alike, in spontaneous communion of sacrifice and devotion to the cause; the armed forces and the civil population united in an honest cooperation, and in an atmosphere free from any racial and religious discrimination.
