The Mirage on the Sea
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that transports viewers to the beach of Tripoli, where an extraordinary scene unfolds. In this artwork by Achille Beltrame, we witness a moment of awe and wonder as bathers stand in anticipation of a colossal wave about to crash onto the shore. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring this mirage to life, making it difficult to distinguish reality from illusion. As the wave approaches, excitement fills the air among men, women, and children enjoying their holiday by the sea. Their faces reflect both fear and fascination at this seemingly imminent natural phenomenon. However, disappointment soon replaces their astonishment when they realize that what appeared as a massive wave was merely an African mirage playing tricks on their eyes. Beltrame's illustration captures not only the optical effect but also the joyous atmosphere of summertime on the Libyan coast. The sandy beach stretches out before us while swimmers frolic in crystal-clear waters under warm sunshine. Families gather together for leisurely moments amidst laughter and splashes. Through his skillful brushstrokes, Beltrame invites us into this fleeting moment where reality merges with imagination. "The Mirage on the Sea" serves as a reminder that even our most vivid perceptions can deceive us if we are not careful observers of nature's wonders.
