EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print captures a moment of joy and respite amidst the chaos of World War I. Titled "Variety performers of London theatres entertaining the British troops in camps in France" this colour litho by Achille Beltrame showcases the power of entertainment to uplift spirits and bring people together. Published in La Domenica del Corriere in January 1915, this image depicts a group of talented dancers and performers from London's renowned theatres, who have traveled all the way to France to entertain the British soldiers stationed there. The energy is palpable as they showcase their skills, captivating audiences with their choreography and artistry. The scene is set against the backdrop of military tents, reminding us that even during times of war, moments like these were cherished by both performers and soldiers alike. It serves as a reminder that amidst hardship, humanity finds solace in music, dance, and laughter. Beltrame's illustration beautifully captures not only the talent on display but also highlights the unity between nations. With performers hailing from Italy (the artist himself), Britain, and other European countries represented among both artists and audience members; it symbolizes how culture transcends borders. This print offers a glimpse into history—a testament to resilience, camaraderie, and hope during one of humanity's darkest periods. It reminds us that even when faced with adversity, we can find light through artistry and shared experiences.
