Achille Beltrame (18 March 1871 in Arzignano – 19 February 1945 in Milan), was an Italian painter, illustrator and commercial artist. His name is indissolubly tied to the weekly La Domenica del Corriere, the covers of which he drew from the beginning weeks of the twentieth century to the closing weeks of World War II. Beltrame was the official cover-illustrator of La Domenica del Corriere until 1945. He was succeeded in this position by his disciple Walter Molino.
