EDITORS COMMENTS
Pull Against Us! (colour litho) by Achille Beltrame captures the harrowing reality of war during World War One. In this powerful image, we witness French commander Farge, isolated with his own ward in an area reached by the Germans, making a desperate plea for artillery support. The caption reveals that they are surrounded and facing certain defeat, but their duty has been fulfilled. The scene is filled with haunting symbolism as we see soldiers lying lifeless on the battlefield amidst sandbags and debris. The officer's body lies slumped against a telephone pole, representing the last thread of communication to their command. It is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by those who fought valiantly in this brutal conflict. Beltrame's illustration for Courier Sunday in September 1918 serves as a testament to the courage and resilience exhibited by soldiers during wartime. The artist skillfully captures both the chaos and loneliness experienced on the front lines. This print from Fine Art Finder allows us to reflect upon the devastating consequences of war while honoring those who gave their lives in service to their country. It serves as a stark reminder that even in moments of despair, bravery can still be found.
