EDITORS COMMENTS
The vibrant lithograph titled "Before it started, for a German film, a charge of knights from the time of Frederick. . " captures a whimsical moment in cinematic history. Created by Achille Beltrame in 1932, this artwork showcases the chaos that ensued before the filming of a German movie set during the era of Frederick the Great. In this comical scene, as the spotlight shines on the set, frightened couriers carrying costumes and props for extras flee in panic. Their hasty escape overwhelms everything in their path, creating an amusing spectacle. Even Federico's horse joins in on the race but without its rider – luckily for both horse and artist. Beltrame's illustration was originally published in Courier Sunday on December 18th to add humor to an article about film production. The image perfectly captures the frenzy and excitement behind-the-scenes of filmmaking. This artwork not only highlights actors and actresses dressed as knights but also features various animals such as horses and ponies bolting alongside them. It provides a glimpse into Germany's rich cinematic culture during that period. With its lively colors and humorous depiction of chaos unfolding on a film set, this lithograph offers viewers an entertaining window into early German cinema history.
