The German attack on Russia that betrayed the pacts
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a vibrant and evocative colour lithograph by Achille Beltrame, depicting a pivotal moment in history. The image captures the chaos and intensity of battle as German soldiers storm a Soviet fort during World War II. In this dramatic scene, billowing smoke engulfs the battlefield, obscuring the view of both armies. Barbed wire fences line the perimeter, symbolizing the barriers between nations and foreshadowing the brutal conflict to come. The soldiers are dressed in their respective uniforms - Germans on one side and Russians on the other - representing two opposing forces locked in combat. Beltrame's meticulous attention to detail brings this historical event to life. Each soldier is depicted with precision, showcasing their determination and resolve amidst the chaos. The artist skillfully portrays not only physical confrontation but also conveys deeper themes such as betrayal and broken alliances. This powerful artwork was originally created for Courier Sunday newspaper on June 29th, 1941, capturing a significant turning point in World War II when Germany launched its surprise attack against its former ally, Russia. It serves as a reminder of how political agreements can crumble under pressure and how war can change alliances overnight. "The German attack on Russia that betrayed the pacts" stands as an enduring testament to Beltrame's talent as an illustrator and his ability to capture historical moments with vividness and emotion.
