EDITORS COMMENTS
Valuable episodes on the Somali Front (Colour Litho) captures a pivotal moment in history, showcasing the bravery and resilience of soldiers during warfare. The print, created by Achille Beltrame in 1936, depicts a dramatic scene where an armored car has become stranded in a stream. Despite being under attack, a courageous marshal and a group of Dubats fighters valiantly defend their position. The intense battle unfolds as gunfire erupts from both sides. The machine gunner is shown falling victim to enemy fire while the soldiers stand firm, determined to hold their ground until reinforcements arrive. This powerful illustration originally appeared in Courier Sunday on January 19th, 1936. Beltrame's attention to detail brings this historical event to life. From the expressions on the faces of the combatants to the intricate depiction of weaponry and tanks, every element contributes to creating an immersive experience for viewers. This artwork not only pays tribute to those who fought bravely but also sheds light on Italy's imperial ambitions during that era. It serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers fighting for control over African colonies. Valuable episodes on the Somali Front (Colour Litho) is part of a private collection and showcases Beltrame's exceptional talent as an illustrator capturing significant moments in history.
