The Variant of a New Sport
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures the exhilarating evolution of aquaplane enthusiasts in the early 20th century. In this vibrant colour lithograph by Achille Beltrame, we are transported to the coast of Florida where a thrilling new era unfolds. Gone are the days when motorboats towed these water sports enthusiasts; now, cars take on that role, reaching speeds that often exceed eighty kilometers per hour. Published in Courier Sunday on August 5th, 1928, this illustration showcases the daring spirit and innovation of American beachgoers. The sandy shores come alive with excitement as men, women, and children embrace this novel form of entertainment. Bathed in sunshine and surrounded by crystal-clear waters, they revel in their newfound freedom. Beltrame's meticulous attention to detail brings every element to life – from the stylish costumes worn by swimmers to parked automobiles dotting the coastline. This snapshot into an era reveals not only a love for sport but also an appreciation for leisurely pursuits. "The Variant of a New Sport" is more than just an image; it encapsulates America's fascination with progress and adventure during this time period. It serves as a reminder that humans have always sought ways to push boundaries and find joy in exploring new possibilities. This print from Bridgeman Images allows us to step back into history and witness firsthand how our ancestors embraced change while enjoying their free time along North America's beautiful beaches.
