EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating chromolitho print titled "When travelling one must be generous" takes us back to the late 19th or early 20th century, showcasing a scene filled with charm and humor. The French School artwork, part of a private collection, depicts a bustling train station platform where travelers are engaged in various activities. In this lively composition, we see passengers dressed in fashionable attire boarding carriages while being attended by porters and waiters. A young boy stands at the center of attention as he generously hands out coins to newspaper sellers and card players. The image beautifully captures the spirit of generosity that should accompany every journey. The educational card serves as a reminder that when traveling, it is important to extend kindness and appreciation for the services provided along the way. Tipping was customary during this era, highlighting how even children were taught about giving back to those who assist them on their travels. Through vibrant colors and intricate details, this artwork transports us into an era where travel was an elegant affair. It not only showcases fashion trends but also offers insight into social customs surrounding generosity and service. This delightful print from Bridgeman Images invites us to reflect upon our own journeys and consider how acts of kindness can enhance our experiences while fostering connections with others along the way.
