EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a harrowing moment in history when dozens of hungry crocodiles attacked a Danish film expedition on an islet in New Guinea. The image, created by the talented artist Achille Beltrame, depicts the intense struggle for survival as three men and a woman desperately flee from the ferocious reptiles. The courageous explorers managed to find refuge on a high rock, where they anxiously awaited rescue for three agonizing days. Their terrifying ordeal serves as a reminder of the dangers that accompany adventurous expeditions into uncharted territories. Beltrame's illustration was originally published in Courier Sunday on 1 August 1937, shedding light on this extraordinary news event. The vivid colors and attention to detail bring this heart-pounding scene to life, immersing viewers in the intensity of the attack. This artwork not only showcases Beltrame's artistic prowess but also highlights the bravery and resilience of these individuals who faced such perilous circumstances. It serves as a testament to human determination and our ability to overcome even the most daunting challenges nature throws our way. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are reminded of both the beauty and danger that coexist within our world. It stands as a powerful reminder that exploration can be fraught with risks but can also lead us to discover incredible wonders hidden within our planet's vast landscapes.
