EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Sad Christmas, sailing ship sunk in Genoa by a large German steamer and dramatic crew rescue" transports us back to a fateful moment in history. Created by the talented artist Achille Beltrame, this colour litho illustration captures the heart-wrenching scene that unfolded on La Domenica Del Corriere from 4-11 January 1914. In this powerful image, we witness the tragic sinking of Sad Christmas, a majestic sailing ship off the coast of Genoa. The culprit behind this devastating event was none other than a colossal German steamer. As waves crash against the vessel's hull and winds howl mercilessly, brave fishermen and sailors scramble to save their fellow crew members from certain doom. The intensity of their efforts is palpable as they battle against treacherous waters to rescue those stranded at sea. With oars in hand and determination etched on their faces, these courageous men embody heroism amidst chaos. Beltrame's attention to detail brings every element of this harrowing scene to life - from the turbulent ocean waves to the sinking ship itself. Through his artistry, he not only immortalizes an unforgettable moment but also sheds light on themes such as resilience, sacrifice, and human compassion. This poignant artwork serves as a reminder of both tragedy and hope during one fateful Christmas season long ago. It stands as a testament to mankind's unwavering spirit even in times of great adversity.
