EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "A Crazy Race" we are transported back to a peculiar event that took place in England on the London-Brighton route. The image, created by Achille Beltrame, showcases a thrilling competition between young mothers who pushed their children in wheelchairs for over 83 kilometers. The scene is filled with energy and excitement as the determined mothers race through the streets, surrounded by a curious crowd of onlookers. The traditional prams and strollers add a touch of nostalgia to the bizarre spectacle unfolding before our eyes. As the race reaches its climax, two exhausted mothers and one child succumb to fainting from their tremendous efforts. This unexpected twist adds an element of suspense to an already exhilarating event. Through this illustration for Courier Sunday in April 1923, Beltrame captures not only the physical exertion but also the spirit of competition and determination displayed by these young mothers. Their victory is celebrated amidst a backdrop of cheering spectators and proud families. This image serves as a reminder of both the extraordinary lengths parents will go for their children's happiness and how sports can bring communities together in celebration. It encapsulates moments of triumph, curiosity, tradition, and family bonds all within one frame. Beltrame's artwork beautifully portrays this unique slice of history while simultaneously inviting us to reflect on themes such as youth, parenthood, resilience, and British culture during that era.
