EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a truly bizarre and unforgettable moment in the streets of Paris. In this colour litho by Achille Beltrame, we see a drunken camel causing quite a commotion as it is taken into custody by the police force. The scene is filled with an array of vibrant costumes, curious onlookers, and bewildered schoolchildren. The image was originally created as an illustration for Courier Sunday on March 17th, 1907. It showcases the spectacle that unfolded when this intoxicated camel found itself in contravention of the law. Its presence amidst the bustling crowd creates an atmosphere of both amusement and astonishment. Beltrame's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this artwork. From the intricate design of the animal's attire to the expressions on people's faces, he masterfully captures each element that contributes to this peculiar scene. As we delve deeper into this image, we can't help but wonder about how such a situation came to be. What led to this camel becoming drunk? And why did it find its way onto the streets of Paris? Regardless of these unanswered questions, one thing remains certain: This photograph print serves as a testament to human fascination with unusual occurrences and our ability to find humor even in unexpected situations.
