EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "How a Standard-Bearer Died" by Achille Beltrame depicts a tragic and heroic moment during World War I. In this vividly colored lithograph, we witness the courageous act of Ciro Scianna, the standard-bearer of the 9th department of Arditi. Standing on the Asolone battlefield, amidst billowing smoke and flames, Scianna defiantly raises Italy's tricolor flag to the wind. As bullets rain down upon him from enemy machine guns, Scianna falls victim to their deadly onslaught. However, even in his final moments, he clings onto his unwavering patriotism and love for his country. Gravely wounded and dying in the arms of Major Messe, he utters his last words: "Major, I die. . . but. . . Long live Italy. . . give me the flag to kiss!". This poignant illustration originally appeared in Courier Sunday on July 21-28,1918. It captures not only the devastating reality of war but also showcases acts of bravery that inspire generations to come. Beltrame's skillful use of color brings life to this somber scene while emphasizing both tragedy and heroism simultaneously. The image serves as a reminder of sacrifice made by countless soldiers like Scianna who fought valiantly for their nations. Displayed within private collections worldwide today, this powerful artwork continues to evoke emotions and provoke contemplation about humanity's capacity for courage in times of great adversity.
