EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, created by Italian artist Achilles Beltrame in 1904, showcases a powerful scene of Italian workers crossing the St. Bernard Pass between Aosta and Switzerland. The image was featured as the cover of "La Domenica del Corriere" on February 14th, 1904. In this print, Beltrame skillfully captures the harsh realities faced by these hardworking individuals as they navigate through treacherous terrain covered in snow. The group of workers is depicted with great detail, each person carrying their own burdens and braving the cold weather. The artwork serves as a poignant representation of immigration and poverty during the early 20th century in Europe. It highlights the struggles faced by these laborers who left their homes to seek better opportunities elsewhere. Beltrame's use of light and shadow adds depth to the composition, emphasizing both the physical challenges endured by these workers and their determination to forge ahead despite adversity. This lithograph not only showcases Beltrame's artistic talent but also provides a glimpse into an important period in history when technology was advancing rapidly, transforming economies across Europe. It serves as a reminder of how far society has come while also acknowledging that there is still much work to be done towards creating more equitable conditions for all individuals.
