EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the historic moment when Karl Benz, the pioneering inventor of the first gasoline-powered automobile, took his creation for a test drive through the picturesque streets of Mannheim, Germany, in 1887. Accompanied by his trusted partner Max Rose, Benz confidently maneuvered the three-wheeled Benz Patent-Motorwagen, wearing a bowler hat that shielded him from the elements. The image beautifully encapsulates the spirit of innovation and adventure that characterized the early days of motoring. With its large, wooden wheels and exposed mechanical components, the Benz Car was a far cry from the sleek, streamlined vehicles we know today. Yet, it marked the beginning of a new era in transportation, forever changing the way we travel and connect with the world around us. This photograph is a testament to Benz's groundbreaking achievement and the inexorable march of progress.
