EDITORS COMMENTS
Left alone at sea, off the American coast, after the wreck of a ship. . . (colour litho) captures a dramatic moment in history when a sailor found himself stranded and surrounded by hungry fishers. In this gripping illustration by Achille Beltrame, we witness the intense struggle between man and beast as the sailor clings to a scrap for dear life. As waves crash around him, the castaway's only hope lies in his ability to fend off these voracious creatures. With determination etched on his face, he fights tooth and nail against their relentless attacks. But just as all seems lost, salvation arrives from above. A seaplane swoops down from the United States, launching smoke bombs that disperse the menacing predators. The arrival of this aircraft marks a turning point in our hero's desperate battle for survival. Soon after, he is rescued by a fishing boat that plucks him from certain doom. Beltrame's masterful depiction not only showcases his artistic skill but also highlights humanity's resilience in the face of adversity. This image serves as a reminder of our unwavering spirit even when faced with overwhelming challenges. Through this artwork, we are transported back to an era where courage and resourcefulness were paramount at sea. It is an homage to those who have braved treacherous waters and emerged victorious against all odds.
