EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Progress" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the evolving world of technology and transportation. The Dutch School's intricate illustrations showcase the rapid advancements that were taking place during this era. In the foreground, we see two cyclists riding their bicycles with great enthusiasm. These innovative vehicles symbolize progress and represent a new mode of transportation that was gaining popularity at the time. The presence of both male and female cyclists highlights how this newfound freedom extended to all members of society. Surrounding them are various other forms of transport, including horse-drawn carriages and pedestrians going about their daily lives. This bustling scene captures the social aspect of these developments, as people embraced these technological innovations together. The engraving not only showcases the physical changes brought about by progress but also hints at its impact on society as a whole. It serves as a reminder that innovation is not limited to just one field but has far-reaching effects across multiple aspects of life. As we admire this historical artwork, we can't help but marvel at how far we have come since then in terms of transportation and technology. It reminds us to appreciate our present-day conveniences while acknowledging those who paved the way for such remarkable advancements in human history.
