EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "A crazy horse launched himself mad in a town in Bergamo, threatening. . " by Achille Beltrame depicts a dramatic incident that unfolded on the streets of Bergamo. In this color lithograph, we witness the chaos caused by a wild horse as it rampages through the town, endangering a group of young people. Amidst this terrifying scene, an unexpected hero emerges - the local parish priest. As fate would have it, he happens to be passing by at that very moment and fearlessly steps forward with open arms to confront the charging beast. His courageous act causes the horse to change its course, saving the lives of those boys who were about to be trampled. However, even though his bravery prevailed, the priest is not entirely unscathed. A wheel from one of the carts collides with him momentarily but does not overpower him. This powerful illustration originally appeared in Courier Sunday on June 21st, 1931. The image captures both fear and relief simultaneously - showcasing how quick thinking and selflessness can make all the difference in times of crisis. It serves as a reminder that heroes can emerge from unexpected places when faced with danger. Beltrame's artwork beautifully portrays this heart-stopping moment frozen in time - an unforgettable testament to human resilience and courage amidst chaos and panic.
