EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a captivating moment frozen in time. This vibrant colour lithograph by Achille Beltrame takes us back to the year 1926, where an extraordinary foot race unfolded for the conquest of a diamantiferous land. In this scene, we witness the sheer determination and competitive spirit of two thousand competitors as they sprint towards their goal. The atmosphere is electric with anticipation as men and boys from all walks of life participate in this unusual race. Each competitor runs with fervor, hoping to secure their place by planting a peg adorned with a flag on different lots of land. The colourful flags fluttering in the wind add an element of excitement to this bizarre cross-country competition. This artwork offers a glimpse into the rich sporting culture of South Africa during that era. It showcases not only physical prowess but also highlights the diversity and unity among Africans participating in sports activities. Beltrame's intricate illustrations beautifully capture every detail, from the determined expressions on each runner's face to their agile movements. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back to a time when sport was more than just entertainment; it represented dreams, aspirations, and opportunities for individuals striving for success. "A Unique Race in South Africa" serves as a reminder that even amidst fierce competition, there is beauty in camaraderie and shared experiences found within sporting events across cultures and continents.
