EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Very Modern War (Colour Litho)" by Achille Beltrame depicts a scene from World War II. In this illustration, the German avant-gardes are shown making audacious raids on the railway track en route to Petersburg. Utilizing fast trolleys amidst the wreckage of Soviet tanks destroyed by aviation, these soldiers demonstrate the modernity and innovation of warfare during this time. The image showcases the chaos and destruction that war brings, with billowing smoke and fires engulfing the landscape. The burned-out remains of tanks serve as a stark reminder of the violence that has taken place. As soldiers armed with rifles navigate through this treacherous terrain, they embody bravery in their relentless pursuit. Beltrame's artwork captures both sides of this conflict - Germany as aggressors attacking Russian territory while also highlighting Russia's resilience in defending itself against invasion. The flames symbolize not only destruction but also determination and resistance. This powerful depiction serves as a historical record, illustrating one aspect of World War II where technology played a significant role in shaping military strategies. It reminds us of the immense human cost involved in such conflicts and highlights how warfare evolves over time. Overall, "The Very Modern War (Colour Litho)" is an evocative portrayal that encapsulates both the devastation and ingenuity witnessed during this tumultuous period in history.
