EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the early 20th century in France, where an advertisement for a De Dion Bouton Petit voiture 6 chevaux car comes to life. The illustration by Henry Thiriet showcases the glamorous La Belle Otero confidently seated at the wheel, with Michel Zelete, valet of the marquis of Dijon, standing beside her. The scene is set against a picturesque backdrop of a winding road that disappears into the horizon, framed by fluffy clouds floating above. La Belle Otero exudes elegance as she holds onto the steering wheel, donning a fashionable dress that epitomizes historical clothing from that era. Her companion Michel Zelete stands tall in his formal attire and hat. The presence of both men emphasizes not only their role as chauffeurs but also highlights their importance within French culture during this time period. The coastal scenery adds an extra touch of charm to this vintage advertisement. Henry Thiriet's artistic skills are evident in every detail captured on this poster-like print. The vertical composition enhances its visual impact while Western script complements the overall aesthetic. As we gaze upon this image, we can't help but be transported back in time to an era when cars were still a novelty and driving along scenic coastlines was considered quite adventurous. This photograph serves as a reminder of how transportation has evolved over time while preserving elements of history and style that continue to captivate our imagination today.
