EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "In Turin, amid the fear of customers quietly sitting down to drink their drinks. . " by Achille Beltrame, transports us back to a chaotic moment in history. The scene depicts a bustling café in Turin during the year 1931. In this particular instance, the calm atmosphere is shattered as a motorcycle bursts through the doors with two young riders aboard. The sheer speed and recklessness of their entrance causes pandemonium within the establishment. Tables are overturned, chairs are sent flying, and plates crash to the ground amidst cries of panic from patrons caught in the chaos. The café owner stands helpless at his counter while numerous people lie injured on the floor. Beltrame's illustration captures not only the physical wreckage caused by this unexpected intrusion but also conveys a sense of fear and confusion among those present. The dark tones used throughout add an air of tension to an already dramatic scene. This artwork serves as a reminder that even in seemingly peaceful moments, danger can lurk just around the corner. It prompts us to reflect on how quickly our lives can be upended by unforeseen events and reminds us to appreciate moments of tranquility when they come our way.
