EDITORS COMMENTS
The German Chicago, captured in this engraving by Amedee Forestier after Mark Twain's depiction, takes us back to the bustling streets of a vibrant city. The scene is filled with an array of vehicles drawn by horses, showcasing the transport modes of that era. Neatly lined carriages and cabs traverse the streets alongside trim automobiles, providing a fascinating contrast between old and new. Mark Twain's keen observations come to life as we witness the lively hustle and bustle of this German metropolis. The horse-drawn carriages exude elegance while the cars appear somewhat ungainly in comparison. Yet, both forms of transportation coexist harmoniously on these busy roads. The image captures not only the essence of German culture but also highlights its strong ties to Europe as a whole. It serves as a testament to Germany's rich history and its place within the European Union. Amidst all this activity, various animals can be spotted - from racehorses and ponies to shire horses and stallions - adding an element of liveliness to the scene. These farm animals remind us that amidst urban development, rural traditions still hold their ground. This print transports us back in time, allowing us to immerse ourselves in an era where horse-drawn carriages shared space with emerging modern technologies.
