In this color lithograph, we see a chilling scene where the lifeless body of the observatory's director is discovered by St. Bernard dogs from a nearby hospice. The image captures both the progress and perils of scientific exploration in one frame.

Beltrame's attention to detail brings every aspect to life - from the majestic mountainscape to each individual snowflake delicately falling around these unfortunate souls. This artwork not only highlights human vulnerability but also pays homage to our enduring spirit even in face adversity. "The victims of science" serves as a powerful reminder that progress often comes at great cost; however, it is through these sacrifices that humanity continues its quest for knowledge and innovation.
