EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 17th century, immersing us in a historical transport scene. The image showcases two distinct carriages against a picturesque backdrop. In the foreground, we are greeted by an elegant private carriage, exuding opulence and grandeur. Its intricate design and lavish adornments speak volumes about the wealth and status of its occupants. In stark contrast, a public carriage can be seen in the background. This mode of transportation was more accessible to the common people during that era. Its simpler construction suggests functionality over luxury, catering to those who relied on public transport for their daily commute or travel needs. The artist behind this remarkable watercolor is A. Heins, whose attention to detail brings this moment from history alive with vibrant colors and meticulous brushstrokes. Published in Brussels in 1886 as part of "Cortege Historique Des Moyens De Transport" this artwork offers us a glimpse into European society's means of getting around centuries ago. Transportation has always played a crucial role in shaping societies throughout time, and this image serves as a testament to that fact. It invites us to reflect on how far we have come while appreciating the beauty and craftsmanship inherent in these wheeled marvels powered by majestic horses.
