EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a tragic scene in Glasgow, Scotland during the early 20th century. The image depicts a tram accident that resulted in one of the cars spilling over onto a delicate porcelain showcase, causing destruction and chaos. Passers-by are seen caught up in the aftermath of this unfortunate incident. The drawing, created by A. Beltrame and featured in "La Domenica del Corriere" on 1 February 1931, beautifully portrays the intensity and drama of the moment. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he skillfully captures the expressions of shock and concern on the faces of both bystanders and victims. The significance of this artwork lies not only in its artistic merit but also in its historical value. It serves as a reminder of how accidents can disrupt everyday life and leave lasting impacts on individuals and their surroundings. As we gaze upon this powerful image, we are transported back to a time when trams were an integral part of public transport systems across Britain. This particular incident serves as a poignant reminder that even seemingly mundane aspects of daily life can be subject to unexpected events with far-reaching consequences. Stefano Bianchetti's reproduction allows us to appreciate this piece from his private collection while honoring Beltrame's original work. Through their collaboration, they have preserved an important moment frozen in time for future generations to reflect upon.
