EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a young American in Atlantic City, perched on the summit of an antenna towering over 68 meters high. With determination etched on his face, he has already spent sixteen days at this lofty height, surpassing all notions of comfort and safety. Astonishingly, he shows no signs of descending anytime soon; instead, he aims to break his own record of sitting atop a similar structure for 23 days in Baltimore last year. In this extraordinary feat, the daring individual defies conventional logic and embraces an extravagant position that most would find unimaginable. To sustain himself during this audacious endeavor, meals are hoisted up to him using a pulley system. His ambition knows no bounds as he seeks to prolong this unprecedented spectacle. The beach below is adorned with colorful umbrellas and bustling with holiday-goers who gaze up in awe at this incredible display of human endurance. This unusual stunt has become the talk of the town as people flock to witness history being made. As we marvel at this remarkable scene captured by Achille Beltrame's skilled hand through vibrant lithography, we are reminded that humans possess an insatiable thirst for breaking records and pushing boundaries. The spirit of adventure thrives within us all as we seek new novelties and strive for greatness even in the most unconventional ways.
