EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white illustration by Achille Beltrame, featured in "La domenica del corriere" on August 8th, 1937, depicts a tragic incident that unfolded in the vast expanse of the Pacific Ocean. In this haunting image, we witness a Japanese diver equipped with a scaphandler meeting his untimely demise at the hands of a merciless shark. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable as he captures the terror and chaos of this fateful encounter. The diver's scuba suit serves as an eerie reminder of human vulnerability amidst the wonders and dangers lurking beneath the waves. As viewers, we are left pondering our place in this underwater world where life teems with both beauty and peril. Beltrame's evocative engraving transports us back to a time when such incidents were not only shocking but also served as reminders of nature's unforgiving power. This artwork stands as a testament to humanity's fascination with marine life while simultaneously acknowledging its inherent risks. Stefano Bianchetti has skillfully preserved this historical piece within his private collection, ensuring that future generations can reflect upon it. As we gaze upon this timeless print today, let us remember those who have braved these depths before us and honor their courage even in moments when tragedy strikes unexpectedly.
