The End of a Greek Division
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating and haunting image that depicts the devastating consequences of war. In this color lithograph by Achille Beltrame, we witness the aftermath of a fierce battle during World War II. The scene is filled with chaos and destruction as smoke engulfs the battlefield. Fallen soldiers lie scattered across the ground, their lifeless bodies serving as grim reminders of the brutality of combat. The Greek division, once charging forward with determination, now lies defeated. This print captures a pivotal moment in history when an entire Greek Division attempted to join forces with the Serbian army through Albania but was met with unstoppable counterattacks by Italian infantry. It serves as a poignant reminder of how alliances can crumble and turn into tragic confrontations. Beltrame's illustration for Courier Sunday on April 13th, 1941, brings to light the horrors faced by those caught in the midst of war. The artist skillfully portrays not only the physical devastation but also conveys the emotional toll it takes on both sides involved in this conflict. As we gaze upon this powerful artwork, we are reminded of the sacrifices made by brave soldiers and civilians alike during World War II. It serves as a solemn tribute to all those who have lost their lives in pursuit of peace and highlights humanity's collective responsibility to strive for harmony rather than engage in destructive conflicts like these depicted here.
