The Bonfire of the Veteran Wings
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating and thought-provoking print captured by Achille Beltrame in 1928. The image showcases the aftermath of an event that took place on the Philadelphia airfield, where numerous airplanes used by American soldiers during World War One were gathered and set ablaze. In this powerful illustration, we witness a scene filled with wreckage, flames, and billowing smoke as these once mighty war machines are reduced to ashes. The bonfires serve as a symbolic farewell to an era marked by warfare and destruction. As the planes burn fiercely, their charred bodies become a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by brave aviators who fought for their countries. The artist's attention to detail allows us to see not only the burning aircraft but also the crowd that has gathered around them. Soldiers in uniform stand solemnly alongside civilians, witnessing this somber spectacle unfold before them. It is impossible not to feel a sense of awe mixed with sadness at this sight. Beltrame's lithograph captures both the physical devastation caused by war and its emotional impact on those involved. Through his artistry, he immortalizes this moment in history when these veteran wings are laid to rest amidst fire and smoke. "The Bonfire of the Veteran Wings" serves as a stark reminder of our collective past while urging us never to forget those who sacrificed so much for our freedom.
