EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the tumultuous years of World War II, specifically the North African Campaign and the Italian invasion of Egypt. The image depicts a significant moment in history when British armored vehicles were captured by the Italians. The artwork, created by Achille Beltrame, was originally published in La Domenica del Corriere on August 25th, 1940. Beltrame's illustration skillfully captures the intensity and chaos of war in his detailed lithograph. During this campaign, which began on September 13th, 1940, elements of the Tenth Army advanced into Egypt with about four divisions. Among them were four infantry divisions and the Maletti Group who marched an impressive one hundred kilometers in just four days. As we gaze upon this historic scene frozen in time, we are reminded of the harsh desert landscape that served as a battleground for these opposing forces. The contrast between light and shadow adds depth to Beltrame's composition while emphasizing the grueling conditions faced by soldiers during this conflict. This print serves as a poignant reminder of those who fought bravely during World War II and sheds light on an often overlooked theater of war - North Africa. It stands as a testament to human resilience amidst adversity and honors all those who sacrificed their lives for freedom.
