The Eagle and the Bride
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating colour lithograph by Achille Beltrame, depicting a dramatic scene that unfolded on a Greek bus during a wedding trip. In this extraordinary illustration, an eagle swoops down upon the bride with fierce determination, while her husband faints from overwhelming emotion. The other passengers on the bus are drawn into the struggle, desperately fighting to protect the young couple. Beltrame's artwork beautifully captures the intensity of this battle between man and nature. With intricate details and vibrant colours, he brings to life not only the physical confrontation but also the emotional turmoil experienced by all involved. This print transports us back in time to December 1939 when it was originally published in Courier Sunday. It serves as a reminder of how unexpected challenges can arise even during moments of joyous celebration like weddings. "The Eagle and the Bride" is an exquisite piece that showcases Beltrame's talent as an illustrator. Its depiction of bravery, love, and unity resonates with viewers across generations. This print from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate both its artistic merit and its ability to tell compelling stories through visual imagery.
