EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a daring moment in aviation history. At a staggering height of 800 meters, an acrobatic aviator, famously known as the Red Devil in Spain, attempted to perform a death-defying feat by leaping from one airplane to another mid-flight. However, his audacious jump did not go as planned and he was forced to deploy his parachute for safety. Instead of gracefully landing on solid ground, fate had other plans for him. In an unexpected turn of events, the aviator descended onto a speeding car below. The image freezes this heart-stopping moment as he lands on the bonnet of the vehicle with precision and drama. This incredible illustration originally appeared in Courier Sunday on June 28th, 1931. The photograph showcases not only the bravery and skill of this acrobat but also highlights the risks involved in such death-defying stunts during that era. It serves as a testament to human ambition and determination to push boundaries even at great heights. Beltrame Achille's artistic talent shines through in this color lithograph capturing every detail from the aviator's clothing down to his hat. The composition transports us back in time to witness this extraordinary performance unfold before our eyes. This remarkable piece is part of a private collection and offers viewers a glimpse into an exhilarating chapter in aviation history where courage met gravity head-on.
