EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Near Calcutta, two hundred players caught by the police in a gambling den, violently rebelled" takes us back to a chaotic scene in colonial India. The image depicts a dramatic moment where the players, who were apprehended by the police during their illicit activities, fiercely revolt against their captors. As tension escalates on the streets of Calcutta, overwhelmed agents barricade themselves inside a house for safety. However, undeterred by this makeshift shelter, the rebellious gamblers break through its roof with sheer determination. In response to this unexpected turn of events, additional agents arrive at the scene with a truck and engage in yet another intense clash with the rioters. The lithograph captures not only the disorderly nature of this rebellion but also provides insight into larger themes such as colonialism and resistance. It serves as a reminder of how imperial powers sought to control and suppress local cultures and traditions while facing fierce opposition from those seeking autonomy. Beltrame's illustration for Courier Sunday on November 3rd, 1929 brings this historical event to life once again. Although damaged over time, it still manages to convey the chaos that unfolded during that fateful day near Calcutta. Through this powerful image filled with action-packed details – from rooftop fights and thrown objects to uniformed policemen struggling against an enraged mob – we are transported back in time to witness an intense battle between authority and defiance amidst an era marked by conflict and struggle for independence.
