EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Launched into the air, overwhelmed and fatally trampled by an angry elephant" depicts a tragic incident that occurred in a circus in Texas, United States. The image showcases the immense power and fury of an enraged elephant as it launches a clown into the air before delivering a fatal trampling blow. Created by Italian illustrator Achille Beltrame (1871-1945), this color lithograph captures the raw emotion and danger present within the world of circuses. The composition highlights various elements associated with circuses, such as tents, acrobats, clowns, and trailers. It also emphasizes the untamed nature of these magnificent animals through their trumpeting tusks and powerful trunks. The image conveys both fear and awe-inspiring beauty as spectators witness this shocking event unfold. Beltrame's illustration was originally featured in Courier Sunday on October 25th, 1936. This news item brought attention to not only the tragedy itself but also to themes of freedom and escape. The image serves as a reminder that even within controlled environments like circuses, wild animals can still unleash their natural instincts. Displayed here is just one example from Fine Art Finder's extensive collection provided by Bridgeman Images. Through this striking photograph print, viewers are transported back in time to witness a moment frozen forever - an unfortunate clash between human entertainment and animal instinct.
