EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving takes us back to the year 1860, showcasing a post relay between Bucharest and Pitesti in Romania. The image is part of an illustration from "Le tour du monde, nouveau journal des voyages", a publication directed by Edouard Charton in Paris. The scene depicts the rugged landscape of Romania's countryside, with a group of horses standing outside a rustic hut. These majestic animals were essential for transportation during that time, serving as reliable messengers for delivering mail and important messages across long distances. The artist behind this detailed engraving is Lancelot, whose skillful hand brings life to every stroke. Through his work, we can almost feel the energy and determination radiating from these hardworking creatures as they fulfill their duty. The Selva Collection has preserved this historical piece of art, allowing us to glimpse into the past and appreciate the significance of communication systems in earlier times. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of technology and transportation. As we admire this print, let us take a moment to reflect on the dedication and resilience displayed by those who worked tirelessly to ensure efficient communication between cities like Bucharest and Pitesti over 150 years ago.
