EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "An official and four agents had gone to a carpet factory in Szeged, Hungary. . " by Achille Beltrame depicts a dramatic scene that unfolded during a foreclosure at the factory. The owner was absent, leaving the workers frustrated as they pleaded with the official to wait for his return. However, their pleas fell on deaf ears. In an act of desperation and exasperation, the girls working at the factory launched an unexpected attack on the agents. What started as a struggle quickly escalated into a fierce fight, resulting in tragedy. Three girls were left fighting for their lives while others suffered serious injuries. Even the officers themselves found themselves hospitalized due to this violent confrontation. The chaotic atmosphere is vividly captured in this color lithograph from 1930. The riotous crowd can be seen clashing with truncheons raised high amidst colorful tapestries and carpets adorning the factory walls. This battle scene serves as a stark reminder of both social unrest and labor disputes prevalent during that era. Beltrame's illustration for Courier Sunday provides us with a glimpse into history - one filled with tension between workers and authorities within Hungary's craft industry. It also highlights themes of female empowerment as these brave women fought against injustice despite facing overwhelming odds. This powerful image serves as a testament to resilience and defiance in times of adversity, reminding us of our collective responsibility to protect workers' rights even today.
