Man's Under-Kimono (Nagajuban) with "Italy in Ethiopia" Symbols. Culture: Japan. Dimensions: Overall: 53 × 52 in. (134.6 × 132.1 cm). Date: ca. 1935-45.
Italy's condemnation by the League of Nations in 1935 for invading Ethiopia and Somaliland (now Somalia) paralleled the chastisement of Japan in 1932 after their occupation of Manchuria. The Italian action was thus publicly promoted by the Japanese, resulting in a number of these "Italy in Ethiopia" fabrics. The graphic design is incredibly sophisticated, including maps, silhouettes, photographic images, drawings, and flags. The Italian flag retained the cruciform emblem seen on this textile until 1945.
