EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "During the railway strike" by Achille Beltrame depicts a significant moment in history. The image showcases a scene during the rail strike, where various elements of transportation and security converge. In the foreground, we see a soldier standing on a platform, attentively watching over the railway line. Steam billows from an engine nearby, symbolizing the power and progress associated with trains. However, what makes this artwork truly intriguing are the additional modes of transport present. Airplanes and dirigibles hover above, acting as vigilant guardians of these vital lines of communication. These aircraft represent modernity and innovation in contrast to traditional locomotives. Beltrame's illustration was originally featured in Courier Sunday in February 1920 when tensions were high due to labor disputes within Italy's railway system. The presence of policemen and soldiers further emphasizes the importance placed on maintaining order during this tumultuous time. The artist skillfully captures both action and stillness within this composition - bustling movement juxtaposed against stationary figures guarding their posts. This print serves as a reminder of how different forms of transportation interacted during times of unrest while also highlighting technological advancements that shaped society at that time. Overall, "During the railway strike" is not just an ordinary depiction; it encapsulates historical significance through its portrayal of various means of transport coexisting amidst social turmoil.
