EDITORS COMMENTS
This color lithograph captures a fairytale scene that teeters on the edge of drama. In this picturesque countryside, a courageous shepherdess tends to her flock of sheep near Gornjirovac in Yugoslavia. However, her peaceful existence is shattered when she discovers that one of her beloved beasts has fallen victim to a ferocious wolf. Undeterred by fear, the shepherdess confronts the menacing predator head-on, armed with nothing but an axe. The brave girl valiantly battles against the enraged wolf, sustaining multiple wounds in the process. Yet, through sheer determination and unwavering resolve, she ultimately triumphs over her formidable adversary. Illustrated for Courier Sunday in May 1939 by Achille Beltrame (1871-1945), this artwork showcases not only his exceptional talent as an illustrator but also his ability to capture intense moments of struggle and conflict. The composition exudes tension and emotion as it depicts the fierce fight between human and beast. The rural landscape serves as a stunning backdrop for this epic battle between good and evil. With its rolling green pastures and majestic mountains, it adds depth and grandeur to the scene while emphasizing the harsh realities faced by those who live off the land. Beltrame's portrayal of this extraordinary event reminds us of both our vulnerability in nature's realm and our capacity for bravery in times of adversity. It is a testament to human resilience and our unyielding spirit when faced with danger or injustice.
