EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The victims of science, the director of the Gotthard Observatory froze to death. . " by Achille Beltrame depicts a tragic incident that occurred at the Observatory in Gotthard. In this color lithograph, we see a chilling scene where the lifeless body of the observatory's director is discovered by St. Bernard dogs from a nearby hospice. The image captures both the progress and perils of scientific exploration in one frame. The frozen corpses lying amidst the snowy mountainous landscape serve as a stark reminder of nature's unforgiving power. The observatory, nestled high up in the Swiss Alps, stands as a testament to man's relentless pursuit of knowledge and understanding. As we gaze upon this haunting illustration, it evokes feelings of awe and melancholy. It serves as a poignant tribute to those who have sacrificed their lives in search of truth and advancement. The presence of these loyal St. Bernard dogs adds an element of hope amidst tragedy, symbolizing their role as guardians and rescuers in such treacherous conditions. Beltrame's attention to detail brings every aspect to life - from the majestic mountainscape to each individual snowflake delicately falling around these unfortunate souls. This artwork not only highlights human vulnerability but also pays homage to our enduring spirit even in face adversity. "The victims of science" serves as a powerful reminder that progress often comes at great cost; however, it is through these sacrifices that humanity continues its quest for knowledge and innovation.
