The Heroism of a Mother
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating and powerful colour lithograph by Achille Beltrame that depicts the extraordinary bravery of a mother. In this heart-wrenching scene, we witness the selflessness and determination of a woman from Gambugliano, near Vicenza, as she risks her own life to save her child who has fallen into a deep well. With unwavering courage, the mother descends alone along the treacherous walls of the well, clinging desperately to ledges for support. Immersed in water and holding her baby tightly, she calls out for help while trapped beneath its surface. Fortunately, some peasants come to her aid with a staircase that enables her return to safety. Beltrame's illustration captures not only the physical challenges faced by this heroic mother but also conveys the emotional intensity of the moment. The artist skillfully portrays both fear and determination on her face as she fights against all odds to rescue her child. This artwork serves as an inspiring reminder of maternal love's boundless strength and sacrifice. It showcases how ordinary individuals can become heroes when confronted with extraordinary circumstances. "The Heroism of a Mother" stands as an enduring tribute to all mothers who would go above and beyond for their children's safety and well-being.
