EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Agony and fall of Antwerp, bombing of the city by the Germans who occupied it on the 9th current" depicts a tragic moment in history. Created by Achille Beltrame, this colour lithograph showcases the destruction caused during World War I. The image captures the chaos and devastation that unfolded as German forces bombed Antwerp on October 9,1914. The city's streets are filled with terrified citizens desperately trying to escape from the relentless bombardment. Men, women, and children can be seen running for their lives amidst billowing smoke and raging fires. Beltrame's illustration was originally featured in La Domenica Del Corriere magazine, providing a visual representation of this significant event. The artist skillfully portrays both the physical destruction caused by bombings and the emotional agony experienced by those caught in its wake. This artwork serves as a poignant reminder of the horrors endured during wartime. It highlights not only the resilience of humanity but also our collective desire to survive even in times of great adversity. As we reflect upon this historical moment through Beltrame's work, let us remember those who suffered during these dark times and strive towards building a future free from such agonizing conflicts.
