The Providential Parapet
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating colour lithograph by Achille Beltrame, depicting a dramatic incident that occurred near Borgosesia, Italy. In this intriguing image, we witness the aftermath of a cart accident where a wagon has overturned and trapped several animals in the snow-covered street. The focal point of the artwork is an Italian horse, driven to panic by the chaos surrounding it. In its desperate attempt to escape, the horse bolts towards the edge of a steep parapet and finds itself suspended in mid-air. The tension builds as we wonder whether the straps holding it will break or if help will arrive in time. Beltrame's masterful illustration skillfully captures both fear and hope. The viewer can almost feel the animal's panic and sense their own heart racing at witnessing such perilous circumstances. Through his meticulous attention to detail, Beltrame brings this moment frozen in time to life. This print serves as a reminder of how unpredictable life can be and how quickly one's fate can change. It also highlights humanity's resilience and determination to save those in need, as later on, efforts were made to rescue the fallen horse from its precarious position. "The Providential Parapet" showcases Beltrame's talent for storytelling through art while shedding light on an extraordinary event that unfolded during winter in Italy many years ago.
