EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Lightning and a Treasure" depicts a mesmerizing moment captured by the talented artist Achille Beltrame. The image showcases a crude sandstone statue that once graced the courtyard of a farm in Vranov, near Prague. However, during an intense storm, lightning struck the statue, shattering it into pieces. To the astonishment of the villagers witnessing this extraordinary event, a shower of gold coins and jewels spilled out from within. This unexpected discovery left the peasants in awe as they watched their humble countryside transformed into a treasure trove. The rain poured down heavily as if nature itself was celebrating this remarkable find. It is an enchanting scene that speaks to both the power of nature's fury and its ability to reveal hidden treasures. Beltrame's illustration for Courier Sunday on September 6th, 1936 beautifully captures this momentous occasion with intricate details and vibrant colors. The composition transports us back to rural Czechoslovakia, where life revolves around agriculture and farming. Through this artwork, we are reminded of how even amidst storms and chaos, there can be moments of unexpected beauty and fortune waiting to be discovered. "Lightning and a Treasure" serves as a testament to both the resilience of rural communities and the wonders that lie beneath our feet when we least expect them.
