EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a remarkable moment in the history of theater. In the bustling city of Copenhagen, during a rehearsal at a local theater, an unexpected visitor stole the spotlight and caused quite a commotion. As a young actress passionately performed her role on stage, she was unaware of the surprise awaiting her from behind the wings. Emerging with majestic grace and untamed power, a living and authentic lion made its grand entrance onto the scene. The audience gasped in astonishment as this magnificent creature prowled across the stage. However, little did they know that it was all part of an elaborate prank orchestrated by mischievous colleagues. In this chaotic moment, fear gripped both performers and spectators alike. The young actress let out a piercing scream before collapsing to the ground unconscious. It was only then that everyone realized it had been nothing more than an ill-conceived joke. Behind-the-scenes stood a tamer holding onto his captive beast with an iron chain, revealing their complicity in this theatrical spectacle gone awry. This vivid illustration for Courier Sunday on December 29th, 1935 serves as both a reminder of human folly and our fascination with danger. Beltrame Achille's masterful artwork transports us back to that fateful day in Copenhagen when reality blurred with fiction on stage. It is through such moments that we are reminded of the unpredictable nature of life itself - where even within carefully rehearsed performances, chaos can reign supreme.
