EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The great cold of these days, burning fires and distribution of hot drinks on the streets in Russia" by Achille Beltrame depicts a poignant scene from the past. Set against a backdrop of heavy snowfall, the image showcases the harsh winter conditions that plagued Russia during this time. In the midst of freezing temperatures, we see men, women, and children huddled together on the streets. Their faces reveal both resilience and desperation as they endure extreme poverty. A young girl bravely braves the blizzard while a woman nearby hands out cups of hot tea or soup to those in need. The act of distributing warm drinks becomes an act of charity and kindness amidst such dire circumstances. Beltrame's illustration for Courier Sunday in 1907 captures not only the physical challenges faced by these individuals but also their unwavering spirit to survive. It serves as a reminder that even in times of great hardship, humanity can come together to support one another. The artist's attention to detail is evident in his portrayal of traditional Russian clothing worn by both adults and children alike. This adds depth to our understanding of their culture and traditions during this period. "The great cold" depicted here stands as a testament to human resilience amid adversity while highlighting acts of compassion that transcend borders and cultures.
