EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a very modern scene from early 20th century America. In this colourful lithograph titled "Modern life, American policeman who chases a thief in the sea with a hydroplane" artist Achille Beltrame depicts an extraordinary chase on both land and water. The illustration showcases an American policeman pursuing a rogue thief aboard a steam-powered hydroplane in the vast ocean. The daring pursuit unfolds as the officer skillfully navigates through waves, determined to catch the criminal. With ropes ladder in hand, he prepares to board the seaplane and apprehend his target. Beltrame's artwork was originally created for Courier Sunday between April 5-12,1914, showcasing his imaginative vision of law enforcement technology at that time. This piece exemplifies modernity and innovation by combining elements of aviation and maritime transport. The vivid colours bring this action-packed scene to life, highlighting the intensity of the chase while also capturing the beauty of nature surrounding them. It is truly remarkable how Beltrame portrays these contrasting elements - crime and law enforcement against the backdrop of serene waters. This lithograph not only serves as an artistic representation but also offers insight into societal changes during that era. It reminds us that even amidst technological advancements, crime remains ever-present; however, dedicated officers are always ready to protect society from those who seek to disrupt its peace.
