In Bad Company
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating colour lithograph by Achille Beltrame that captures a thrilling moment in aviation history. The image depicts an extraordinary incident that occurred at the Eaglefarm airfield in Australia. A passenger aboard a departing aircraft suddenly discovers a snake slithering near his feet, causing panic to ensue. In a desperate attempt to defend himself, the passenger wields his camera as a weapon against the reptile. However, instead of subduing it, he inadvertently aggravates the creature further. Realizing the severity of the situation, both pilots swiftly react and begin descending towards safety. The tension in this artwork is palpable as viewers witness the daring escape unfolding before their eyes. Finally reaching solid ground, with great relief and courage combined, they manage to eliminate the threat posed by the snake. Beltrame's skilful illustration for Courier Sunday on 21 April 1929 perfectly encapsulates this heart-stopping event. The artist's attention to detail brings every element of this story to life – from capturing fear-stricken expressions on faces to highlighting intricate features of both humans and animals involved. This remarkable piece serves as a testament not only to Beltrame's artistic prowess but also commemorates an unforgettable moment in aviation history where human resilience triumphed over unexpected challenges mid-flight.
