EDITORS COMMENTS
This and intense photo print, titled "Human ferocity, the struggle of two railway workers to throw each other under a train" by Achille Beltrame, depicts a dramatic battle scene between two railway workers. The image showcases the dangerous and risky nature of their profession as they confront each other on the tracks. The vibrant colors of this lithograph draw attention to the billowing smoke from the speeding train in the background. The blocked crossing adds an element of urgency and chaos to the scene. These men are not just repairing or working on the railways; they are engaged in a fierce struggle for dominance. Beltrame's illustration was originally created for Courier Sunday in April 1910, highlighting both human ferocity and public transport dangers. It captures a moment where these two individuals fight against one another with all their might, risking their own lives as well as those around them. The artist skillfully portrays every detail of this confrontation - from their struggling bodies to the steam engine looming over them. This artwork serves as a reminder that even seemingly mundane occupations can become battlegrounds when personal conflicts arise. "Human ferocity" invites viewers to contemplate themes such as masculinity, danger, and conflict within industrial settings. It is an evocative piece that speaks volumes about human nature and our capacity for violence even in unexpected circumstances.
