Three Meters Above the Enemy - A Daring Attack in Sidi-el-Barrani
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, titled "Three Meters Above the Enemy" captures a moment of intense action during World War II. Created by Achille Beltrame, this color lithograph showcases a violent attack carried out by our courageous Arrows against enemy tankers at an airport in Sidi-el-Barrani. The image portrays the surprise assault on unsuspecting enemy forces as they refuel their tanks. The air is thick with smoke and flames as Allied planes swoop down upon the Axis forces, engulfing them in chaos and destruction. Explosions rock the airfield, while burning oil and petrol add to the inferno. In this battle scene, soldiers can be seen running for cover amidst the raging fires and exploding aircraft. The bravery of these men is evident as they fight against all odds to secure victory for their allies. Beltrame's artwork beautifully captures both the intensity and desperation of war. It serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by those who fought during World War II. This powerful image not only depicts a historical event but also symbolizes the determination and resilience displayed by individuals caught up in conflict. As we reflect on this piece from Fine Art Finder, let us remember those who risked everything to defend freedom and honor during one of history's darkest chapters – World War II.
