EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in Beauvais, the enchanting ancient French manufacturing town. Dated 8 December 1922, it showcases a quaint conveyance known as the "Vinaigrette", which interestingly rivals the popularity of modern motor cars in this charming locale. Beauvais, also serving as the capital of the Department of Oise, is renowned for its historical significance and rich cultural heritage. In this snapshot, we witness an era when transportation was still evolving. The Vinaigrette stands proudly amidst a backdrop of old-world architecture, symbolizing both tradition and progress. The image portrays two elderly gentlemen seated inside the carriage while being chauffeured by an attentive driver. Their expressions reveal a sense of contentment and perhaps nostalgia for simpler times. This photograph not only highlights transport quirks but also offers us a glimpse into early travel experiences. As we delve into this monochrome masterpiece from the 20th century, we are reminded that even during periods marked by rapid technological advancements, some remnants of the past manage to hold their ground against modernity's relentless march forward. This remarkable piece from Central News' collection serves as a testament to Europe's enduring love affair with classic modes of transportation. It invites us to reflect on how society evolves while cherishing its roots—a timeless reminder captured within this single frame.
