EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the historical means of transportation in Europe. The image showcases a postillion mounted gracefully on a magnificent carriage horse, with an elegant coach standing proudly in the background. The attention to detail and artistic skill are evident as this scene is based on a watercolor painting by A. Heins. Transportation during this era was heavily reliant on horses and carriages, symbolizing both luxury and efficiency. The postillion, dressed impeccably in traditional attire, exudes confidence as he guides the horse-drawn carriage through bustling streets or serene countryside roads. The composition beautifully captures the essence of European history, evoking nostalgia for a time when wheeled transport played an integral role in society's daily life. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of technological advancements while also celebrating the timeless beauty and gracefulness of these majestic creatures. Published in Brussels in 1886 as part of "Cortege Historique Des Moyens De Transport" this print by Ken Welsh transports us not only through space but also through time. It invites us to appreciate our past and reflect upon how transportation has shaped our present-day world.
