EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Moved and indignant at the end of Lusitania, the people of London attack and devastate the property of the Germans" captures a moment in history that reflects both tragedy and patriotism. Created by Achille Beltrame, an Italian illustrator, this colour lithograph depicts a scene from Courier Sunday on May 23-30,1915. In the aftermath of the sinking of RMS Lusitania by German forces during World War I, emotions ran high among the people of London. Filled with grief and anger over this tragic event that claimed many innocent lives, civilians took to the streets to express their outrage. The image showcases a crowd in front of shattered shop windows and destroyed businesses owned by Germans. The composition portrays not only destruction but also unity as individuals come together to vent their frustration towards Germany. The shattered glass symbolizes broken trust while emphasizing British resilience against adversity. This act serves as an expression of nationalistic sentiment during a time when tensions between countries were escalating. Beltrame's artwork offers us a glimpse into one aspect of how war can impact society - stirring strong emotions that lead to actions fueled by grief and indignation. It serves as a reminder that even in times of great tragedy, communities can find strength through collective action while seeking justice for those affected.
