East of the Maso Stream, a Section of Captured Machine Guns Turned Against the Enemy
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this color lithograph by Achille Beltrame, we are transported back to the harrowing days of World War I. The image depicts a scene from the Italian front, where a section of captured machine guns is being turned against the enemy. The composition is filled with tension and action as smoke billows in the air and soldiers charge forward. The Italians have successfully seized these powerful weapons from their Austrian adversaries and are now using them to gain an advantage in battle. Amidst the chaos, we see lifeless bodies scattered across the battlefield, grim reminders of the brutal reality of war. Bayonets glisten in sunlight as rifles are raised and fired. It is a fierce struggle for survival on both sides. Beltrame's attention to detail brings this historical moment to life. From the rugged mountainous terrain to every soldier's determined expression, each element contributes to capturing the intensity and desperation that defined this era. This print was originally created as an illustration for La Domenica Del Corriere magazine in June 1916. It serves as a poignant reminder of sacrifice and valor during one of history's most devastating conflicts. As we gaze upon this artwork today, let us remember those who fought bravely on both sides and reflect on how far humanity has come since those dark days.
