EDITORS COMMENTS
This color lithograph captures a dramatic moment in history, depicting the infamous act of revenge by a former Dutch sailor against the State. Created by Italian illustrator Achille Beltrame in 1911, this print showcases the chaos that ensued when the sailor took it upon himself to ruin Rembrandt's famous painting, The Night Watch, housed in Amsterdam. The image portrays a scene of utter destruction and defiance as the enraged sailor vandalizes one of Holland's most treasured works of art. Surrounded by shocked onlookers, including men and women alike, his act serves as an anarchistic statement against authority and cultural norms. The artist skillfully conveys tension through dynamic brushstrokes and contrasting colors. As chaos unfolds within the gallery walls, policemen rush to apprehend the vengeful sailor while others attempt to salvage what remains of the masterpiece. This incident not only highlights societal unrest but also raises questions about art's place within public spaces and its vulnerability to acts of vandalism. Beltrame's illustration was originally published in Courier Sunday on January 22nd-29th, 1911. It offers viewers a glimpse into a historical event that shook Amsterdam's artistic community and left an indelible mark on Dutch culture. Through this powerful visual narrative, we are reminded of both art's ability to incite strong emotions and society's responsibility to protect its invaluable treasures for future generations.
