Lighthouses in the Kingdom of Clouds
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating and imaginative print that takes us back to the early days of aviation. Created by Italian illustrator Achille Beltrame in 1919, this colorful lithograph showcases an exciting vision for commercial aircraft navigation in Egypt. In this artwork, we see a dragon-shaped balloon floating high above the clouds, with two ships attached to it. The balloon serves as a lighthouse, guiding airplanes through the vast sky. Its powerful lamp illuminates from below, providing orientation for pilots flying over Egypt's majestic landscapes. Beltrame's illustration captures the thrill and wonder of early aviation as tourists and aviators embark on new adventures across Africa. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring life to this fantastical scene, where planes soar freely amidst fluffy white clouds. This print not only celebrates human ingenuity but also highlights the fusion between technology and nature. It symbolizes progress while reminding us of our connection to the four elements - air, earth, water, and fire. As we gaze upon "Lighthouses in the Kingdom of Clouds" we are transported to a time when flight was still a novelty and every journey held endless possibilities. It serves as a reminder that even today's modern aviation owes its existence to these pioneers who dared to dream big and explore uncharted territories. This remarkable artwork is part of a private collection but continues to inspire awe among those who appreciate both artistry and history.
