EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Humble heroes" depicts a heartwarming scene at the Marano railway station in Venice. The image showcases the selfless act of a railway worker rescuing his fallen comrade from the wheels of a motorized train. Created by Achille Beltrame, this color lithograph beautifully captures the bravery and camaraderie among these humble heroes. The illustration was originally published in Courier Sunday on November 13,1904. It portrays an Italian railway worker going above and beyond to save his fellow colleague, highlighting their dedication to ensuring passenger safety. The bustling platform, filled with luggage and departing trains, adds depth to the narrative. Beltrame's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this artwork – from the steam billowing out of the engine to the expressions on both men's faces. This powerful image serves as a reminder of everyday heroism that often goes unnoticed. The setting of Marano (Venice) further enhances this piece, showcasing Italy's rich history and culture within its railways. The artist masterfully captures not only the physical rescue but also conveys emotions such as determination and relief. This print is part of a private collection but remains accessible through Fine Art Finder.
