EDITORS COMMENTS
This color lithograph, titled "A Postal Stagecoach Assaulted By Masked Brigands At Orani (Sardinia)" takes us back to a dramatic moment in history. Created by the talented illustrator Achille Beltrame, this artwork depicts an intense scene that unfolded near Orani, Sardinia. In this image, we witness a postal stagecoach being ambushed by masked brigands on a secluded road. The coach is surrounded by armed robbers who have halted its progress and are demanding valuables from the passengers. A brave policeman stands his ground, ready to defend against these ruthless thieves. The composition beautifully captures the chaos and tension of the situation. The vibrant colors bring life to every detail - from the frightened expressions of the passengers to the intricate design of their clothing. Even amidst danger, one can't help but notice the strength and resilience displayed by a woman holding her own rifle in defense. Beltrame's skillful rendering transports us back to 1901 when this illustration was featured in Courier Sunday as part of a news item. It serves as a reminder of Italy's turbulent past and highlights both bravery and criminality during that era. This print offers not only artistic beauty but also historical significance. It serves as a testament to human courage in times of adversity while shedding light on an important event that shaped Sardinian history forever.
