EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the dramatic scene of a bold assault by a postal messenger on a train traveling between Naples and Avellino in Italy. Created as a color lithograph by Achille Beltrame, this artwork showcases the audacious act of the messenger stealing important values from the train. The image, originally published in La Domenica Del Corriere in October 1910, depicts the chaotic moment when the robbery takes place. The postman is seen overpowering his victims while brandishing his revolver with an air of confidence. The passengers and officials on board are left stunned and helpless as their precious letters and valuables are snatched away. Beltrame's detailed illustration highlights not only the crime itself but also emphasizes the vulnerability of public transport systems during that era. The composition showcases various elements such as railway carriages, sacks filled with mail, and frightened individuals who have fallen victim to this brazen act. This artwork serves as a reminder of both historical events and artistic talent. Beltrame's skillful use of color brings life to this thrilling scene, capturing every detail with precision. It offers viewers an intriguing glimpse into Italian society at that time, where criminality was prevalent even within official institutions like postal services. Overall, this striking print provides us with an insight into an audacious crime committed aboard a moving train over a century ago—a testament to human ingenuity or desperation depending on one's perspective—frozen forever in time through Beltrame's masterful brushstrokes.
