At the end of the rainy season in 1885 (European calendar), the Emperor and Empress accompanied by their retinue descended the mountain to enjoy the hot springs of Filwoha where a large number of tents were erected.

Borelli's comment is skeptical in the extreme ; he remarks that Taitu's " fantasy," as he calls it, will soon pass ; the Emperor, he adds, had first gone to Filwoha several years earlier to enjoy the hot springs ; then he had abandoned them, and only returned there on Taitu's account.

The stylized figures with oval faces and round, white eyes outlined in fl are synonymous with Ethiopian art, which remained static until the middle of the last century when Emperor Haile Selassie, who spent six years in exile in England during the Italian occupation, agreed to establish a university and an art school.
Merid Tafesse, a 26-year-old with spiky hair and fashionable tiny glasses, scrawled a fl charcoal abstract over a white wall of one of Taitu's smaller exhibit rooms, knowing in advance that his contribution would be painted over at the end of the show.
