EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 18th century, where we witness a scene of bustling transportation in Europe. A post-chaise, elegantly drawn by horses, enters a walled compound as it passes between a lively band and a train of donkeys. The artist behind this remarkable watercolor is A. Heins, whose attention to detail transports us into the historical world of transport. Published in Brussels in 1886 as part of "Cortege Historique Des Moyens De Transport" this image captures the essence of European travel during that era. The wheels on the chaise symbolize progress and innovation, while the presence of both horse-drawn and wheeled vehicles showcases the evolving modes of transportation at that time. The walled compound adds an air of exclusivity and protection to this vibrant scene. As the post-chaise navigates through its gates, it becomes evident that this location was not easily accessible to everyone. Perhaps it served as a hub for important individuals or acted as a stop along an important route. The juxtaposition between the band's lively music and the steady pace of the donkey train creates an intriguing contrast within this snapshot from history. It reminds us that even amidst progress and development, traditional methods still played significant roles in daily life. Ken Welsh's expertly captured print allows us to appreciate how transportation has evolved over centuries while simultaneously immersing ourselves in an enchanting moment from Europe's past.
