EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "American Leisures" by Achille Beltrame takes us back to the bustling streets of New York City in 1920. From the dizzying heights of a twenty-five-story skyscraper, a daring stuntman mesmerizes the crowd with his incredible balancing act on a chair. The spectacle is so awe-inspiring that even seasoned climbers feel their heads spin. As we gaze at this remarkable image, we can't help but be drawn into the dangerous performance unfolding before our eyes. The city skyline serves as an impressive backdrop, emphasizing both the audacity and fearlessness of this American daredevil. The audience watches in amazement, their curiosity piqued by this death-defying feat. It's a moment that captures the spirit of America - a nation known for its risk-taking and love for thrilling spectacles. Beltrame's illustration perfectly encapsulates the energy and excitement of early 20th-century America. With every detail meticulously rendered, from each individual chair balanced precariously on top of one another to the expressions on people's faces filled with anticipation and wonder. This print not only showcases Beltrame's artistic talent but also offers us a glimpse into an era where danger was embraced as entertainment. It reminds us that sometimes it is through taking risks that we truly experience life to its fullest extent.
