EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "A new form of propaganda" by Achille Beltrame showcases a powerful display of patriotism and nationalism. The image captures the sailors of the Pacific Fleet parading through the streets of San Francisco, forming the word "California" which happens to be the name of their latest dreadnought. This procession serves as an encouragement for recruitment specifically for this magnificent ship. The photograph portrays a vibrant scene with a crowd lining up along the streets, waving flags and cheering on these brave sailors. The composition is visually striking, with each sailor carefully positioned to create each letter in perfect alignment. The presence of military personnel marching proudly adds to the overall sense of unity and strength. The image reflects not only American pride but also highlights the importance placed on naval power during this time period. It symbolizes America's commitment to protecting its coastlines and projecting its influence across oceans. Beltrame's illustration was originally published in Courier Sunday in January 1921, capturing a significant moment in history when propaganda played a crucial role in shaping public opinion. Through this artwork, viewers are transported back to an era where national identity was celebrated through grand displays like parades and processions. Overall, this print serves as both a historical document and an artistic representation that encapsulates themes such as patriotism, military might, and nationalistic fervor within early 20th-century America.
