EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Achille Beltrame depicts a dramatic moment on the Parma-Mantua road at night. Two motorcyclists, lost in the darkness, suddenly realize that the level crossing ahead is closed. With no time to brake, they make a daring decision to pass under the barriers. However, their bold maneuver causes their motor-buggy to overturn just as a train approaches. In this heart-stopping scene, we witness the miraculous intervention of fate. At the last possible moment, a brave toll booth operator snatches both daredevils away from certain catastrophe. The image captures the intensity of this life-or-death situation with its vivid colors and intricate details. Beltrame's illustration for Courier Sunday in 1937 not only showcases his artistic talent but also serves as a reminder of the dangers faced by those who take risks on our roads and railways.
