EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Legionary airplanes continue their bombing actions on the ports of Red Spain" by Achille Beltrame depicts a dramatic scene during the Spanish Civil War. The colour lithograph showcases Legionary airplanes relentlessly bombarding the ports of Red Spain, specifically Barcelona, causing significant damage to smuggler ships and destroying valuable materials. The image captures the chaos and destruction brought upon by these aerial attacks. Fires rage on ships as explosions rock the harbor, creating a terrifying spectacle. The planes drop bombs with precision, targeting communist forces in an effort to support nationalist troops. Beltrame's illustration was originally published in Courier Sunday in December 1938, providing readers with a visual representation of this news item from that time. His artistic talent shines through as he skillfully portrays the intensity and devastation of war. This artwork not only serves as a historical document but also evokes strong emotions related to patriotism and sacrifice. It reminds us of the four elements at play – fire, air, earth (ships), and water (harbor) – all affected by this violent conflict. As we gaze upon this powerful image, we are transported back to Catalonia during one of its darkest moments. Beltrame's work stands as a testament to his skills as an illustrator while shedding light on an important chapter in Spanish history.
