EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in aviation history - the first air collision between a biplane and an airplane. The incident took place in Milan on the 1st Corr, resulting in the tragic demise of both aviators. Illustrated by Achille Beltrame for Courier Sunday, this colour litho print showcases the fatal fall of these daring pilots. The image portrays the heart-stopping clash between two aircraft as they tear through the sky. One can almost feel the intensity and chaos of this aerial collision, with wings breaking and planes diving towards their inevitable doom. The Italian flag proudly adorns one of the planes, symbolizing national pride amidst this devastating event. The destruction caused by this crash is evident, with broken wings and torn metal scattered across the scene. It serves as a stark reminder of how dangerous early aviation was and highlights the risks that these pioneers faced in their pursuit of flight. Beltrame's illustration skillfully depicts not only the physical damage but also conveys a sense of tragedy and loss. This historic photograph print offers us a glimpse into a pivotal moment in aviation history when dreams soared high but were met with unforeseen consequences. As we reflect on this image, we are reminded to appreciate how far we have come in terms of safety measures and technological advancements within aviation.
