EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the intricate design of a French carriage from the 16th century. Created by Jacques Besson, this design for a new royal carriage showcases the opulence and grandeur of transportation during this time period. The carriage appears to be incredibly heavy, with ornate detailing and elaborate craftsmanship evident in every aspect of its construction.
Despite its weight, the horses pulling the carriage look strong and capable, ready to transport their passengers in style. The attention to detail in both the design of the carriage and the appearance of the horses highlights the importance placed on luxury and elegance in 16th-century France.
The image transports viewers back in time to an era when private carriages were symbols of wealth and status. It serves as a reminder of a bygone era when transportation was not just about getting from point A to point B, but also about making a statement and showcasing one's social standing.
Mary Evans has expertly captured this piece of history through her photography, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and craftsmanship of this French royal carriage from 1570. It is truly a work of art that reflects both practicality and extravagance in equal measure.
