EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Oxen pushed by the Russians on the cleared land around Premysl and blown up by dynamite" depicts a haunting scene from World War One. The image, a colour lithograph created by Achille Beltrame in 1914, showcases the brutal reality of war. In this illustration for La Domenica Del Corriere, we witness a devastating act carried out during the conflict. The Russians are seen pushing oxen on the vacant land surrounding Premysl while Austrians artfully scatter dynamite to blow them up. This cruel tactic was employed as part of military strategy during this tumultuous time. The composition is filled with powerful symbolism and evokes strong emotions. The lifeless bodies of cows scattered across the fields serve as a grim reminder of the countless lives lost in war. Explosions and bombs further emphasize the destructive nature of armed conflicts. Beltrame's artwork not only captures the horrors faced by both soldiers and animals but also highlights how warfare affects innocent creatures caught in its crossfire. It serves as a poignant commentary on human cruelty and senseless violence. As we reflect upon this historical moment through Bridgeman Images' reproduction, it reminds us to strive for peace and understanding among nations, so that such scenes may never be repeated again.
