EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the incredible scene of 100,000 people gathering in Milan to witness the arrival of cyclists participating in the renowned Giro d'Italia race. The color lithograph, created by Achille Beltrame, showcases a tragic episode that unfolded due to the overwhelming crowd. The image portrays a bustling street filled with men, women, and children eagerly awaiting the arrival of their favorite competitors. The atmosphere is electric as spectators overflow onto sidewalks and railings, creating an intense and packed environment. The sheer magnitude of this event is evident as every inch of available space is occupied by enthusiastic onlookers. As the cyclists make their way through this sea of supporters, one cannot help but feel a sense of excitement and anticipation. However, amidst all the fervor lies tragedy - a reminder that even great celebrations can have unforeseen consequences when crowds become uncontrollable. Beltrame's illustration originally appeared in La Domenica Del Corriere magazine between June 4th and 11th in 1911. It serves as both a testament to Italy's love for cycling and a cautionary tale about managing large public gatherings. This remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images allows us to glimpse into history and appreciate not only the passion for sports but also the challenges that come with organizing such monumental events.
