EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a drawing by Gustave Fraipont, depicting the horses de haulage at quai de la Gironde in Villette, Paris. The artwork, created in 1890, captures a scene from the bustling canal saint-denis where these majestic horses were used to tow boats along the river. The drawing beautifully portrays the strength and grace of these magnificent creatures as they pull with determination against the backdrop of the Seine River. The view of the cityscape adds depth to this historical snapshot, transporting us back to 19th century France. Gustave Fraipont's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his pen. He skillfully brings life to each horse, showcasing their power and vitality. This collection privee piece from Saint-Juirs is a testament to Fraipont's talent as an artist. As we admire this remarkable drawing, we are reminded of a time when horses played an integral role in transportation and labor. Their contribution was vital for moving goods along canals like the one depicted here. This photograph serves as a window into history, allowing us to appreciate both artistry and heritage. It offers a glimpse into an era long gone but not forgotten—a tribute to both Gustave Fraipont's artistic prowess and the enduring legacy of these hardworking animals.
