The End of the Works - A Monumental Achievement
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph captures a momentous occasion in the construction of the Sempione Gallery, an architectural marvel that stands as a testament to human ingenuity and perseverance. Taken on 18 October, this colour lithograph by Achille Beltrame depicts the historic event when the last stone was placed for the interior cladding. The image showcases a bustling scene filled with dedicated builders and workers who have tirelessly labored to bring this grand project to fruition. The walls of the tunnel are adorned with rubble from previous excavations, evidence of countless hours spent underground. Explosions and carts can be seen in action, symbolizing both progress and danger inherent in such endeavors. The Italian flag proudly waves above this triumph of engineering, signifying national pride in this remarkable achievement. This monumental structure will not only serve as a means of transport but also provide employment opportunities for many individuals within its vicinity. Beltrame's illustration beautifully captures every detail – from workers coupling carts to miners laboring diligently amidst piles of stones. It is clear that their hard work has paid off as they stand beside their finished creation, ready to welcome passengers into its depths. This print serves as a powerful reminder that through determination and collaboration, humans can overcome any obstacle and create extraordinary feats that shape our world for generations to come.
