EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the devastating impact of a severe flood in Paris. The image showcases the forced exodus of sick individuals from a hospital that has been invaded by the rising waters of the Seine River. Created as a colour lithograph by Achille Beltrame, this artwork provides a poignant visual representation of the catastrophic event. In this scene, nuns and medical professionals can be seen navigating through flooded streets on boats, desperately trying to evacuate patients on stretchers. The dedication and bravery displayed by these women is evident as they work tirelessly to ensure the safety and well-being of those in their care. The chaos and urgency are palpable as firemen, policemen, doctors, and orderlies join forces to load patients onto makeshift wooden planks used as gangplanks for boarding the boats. The entire city seems to be mobilized in an effort to rescue those affected by this natural disaster. Amidst all this turmoil, there is also a sense of hope and resilience. The presence of religious figures highlights the importance of faith during times of crisis. Additionally, it serves as a reminder that even in moments when nature's elements seem overwhelming, humanity comes together to support one another. Beltrame's illustration was originally created for Courier Sunday in February 1910 but continues to resonate with viewers today due to its powerful depiction of human strength amidst adversity.
