EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Achille Beltrame depicts a dramatic moment in the life of a Polish aviator. Forced to make an emergency landing in the mountains due to engine failure, the aviator found herself surrounded by a herd of approximately two hundred buffaloes. The vibrant red color of her aircraft had attracted these curious creatures, posing a potential threat as they began to encroach upon her vulnerable position. Fortunately, just in the nick of time, a group of men arrived on the scene and rescued the aviator from this perilous situation. Their timely intervention prevented any harm befalling both pilot and buffalo alike. Beltrame's illustration for Courier Sunday on April 27th, 1930 captures this intense moment with great skill and detail. The image showcases not only the bravery and resilience of female aviators but also highlights how unexpected circumstances can lead to unique encounters between humans and animals. The composition beautifully balances elements such as airplanes, animals, nature, and human interaction. It serves as a reminder that even amidst adversity, there is always hope for rescue or assistance when faced with challenging situations. Overall, this striking lithograph offers viewers an intriguing glimpse into aviation history while showcasing Beltrame's artistic talent in capturing both drama and humor within his illustrations.
