EDITORS COMMENTS
The Night Knights, a group of masked cowboys, are seen returning from a mission of vengeance in Kentucky against non-unionist tobacco growers. This color lithograph by Achille Beltrame depicts the intense and dramatic scene that unfolded during this historic event. In the image, we witness the charging riders on their powerful horses, wearing masks to conceal their identities as they seek justice for their fellow unionists. The dark and fiery backdrop symbolizes the burning fields and crops that were destroyed in retaliation for opposing trade control by unions. The Night Knights ride with determination and purpose, armed with rifles and revolvers ready to defend their cause. Their unity is evident as they charge forward together towards their target. The flames of revenge engulf the landscape behind them, representing both destruction and defiance. This print captures not only an important moment in American history but also highlights themes of power struggle, loyalty, and resilience. It serves as a reminder of the challenges faced by those fighting for workers' rights during this time period. Beltrame's attention to detail brings life to each figure depicted in this artwork. The intensity on their faces reflects their unwavering commitment to bring about change through force if necessary. Overall, this striking print offers viewers a glimpse into a tumultuous chapter in America's past while celebrating the bravery and tenacity of those who fought for justice.
