EDITORS COMMENTS
Receptions. . . unexpected (colour litho) captures a chaotic scene in Cape Town, South Africa during the arrival of the new German cruiser Emden. This print by Achille Beltrame showcases the dramatic events that unfolded when an overwhelming crowd gathered to witness the ship's arrival. The image depicts a bustling harbor filled with men and women eagerly awaiting the sight of the imposing vessel. As excitement reaches its peak, chaos ensues as hundreds of visitors attempt to board the ship, causing concern for their safety. In order to maintain order and prevent accidents, crew members resort to spraying jets of water onto the enthusiastic crowd. The impact is immediate - ladies fainting left and right while dressing tables are ruined amidst all this commotion. The artist's keen eye for detail brings forth both humor and tragedy in this snapshot from history. Beltrame's illustration was originally published in La Domenica Del Corriere on January 30th, 1927. It serves as a reminder of how even seemingly ordinary events can quickly escalate into unexpected spectacles when human curiosity takes hold. This remarkable print offers viewers a glimpse into a bygone era where grand ships held immense fascination for people around the world.
