A Naval Episode of the Spanish War

EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating and dramatic lithograph by Achille Beltrame that captures a pivotal moment during the Spanish Civil War. The print depicts the red destroyer Jose Diez, desperately attempting to return to the Mediterranean under cover of darkness after seeking refuge in Gibraltar for repairs. However, waiting at the gate were national units ready to confront and bombard the ship. The scene is filled with chaos and destruction as explosions light up the night sky, engulfing both sea and ship in flames. The waves crash against the stranded vessel, emphasizing its vulnerability amidst this intense battle. In this image, Beltrame skillfully portrays not only the physical conflict but also conveys a sense of political tension between Spain and Britain. The illustration serves as a powerful reminder of how war can disrupt even seemingly neutral territories like Gibraltar. With its rich colors and dynamic composition, it transports viewers back in time to witness this significant event firsthand. Beltrame's attention to detail brings every element of this naval episode to life – from the raging fires on board to the attacking national units determined to prevent Jose Diez's escape. This print serves as an important historical document that sheds light on one small yet impactful chapter within Europe's turbulent past.
