EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print from the 19th century showcases an impressive Excavator in action. The French School artist skillfully captures the essence of this powerful steam engine, which was commonly used for various tasks related to civil engineering and railway construction. The image transports us back to a time when these mighty machines were at the forefront of technological advancements. With its intricate details and vibrant colors, it is evident that this print was created with great care and precision. Intriguingly, this particular artwork appears on a French educational card from the late 19th or early 20th century. It serves as a visual aid for students learning about trade, railways, and excavation techniques. Perhaps it adorned classroom walls or acted as an inspiration for aspiring engineers. Notably, the presence of "Chocolat Guerin Boutron" adds an unexpected twist to this historical piece. This suggests that chocolate manufacturers may have utilized such prints as promotional materials in sweet shops or candy stores during that era. Overall, this fascinating print offers a glimpse into both industrial progress and advertising strategies of yesteryears. It reminds us of how art can transcend its original purpose and become a window into different aspects of history - be it technology, education or even our love affair with sweets!
