EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork from the 19th century takes us back to a time when refrigerated meat transportation was a groundbreaking technological advancement. The monochrome illustration showcases a refrigerated meat railway carriage, an industrial marvel of its time. In this historical piece, we see mutton and lamb carcasses neatly stored inside the cool confines of the carriage. The artwork is sourced from La Science Illustree, a popular French science weekly publication that aimed to educate and entertain its readers with scientific advancements. This particular print is from the fifth volume of their first period in 1890. Transporting perishable goods like meat was always challenging before the advent of refrigeration technology. However, this innovative railway carriage revolutionized food preservation and logistics in the late 19th century. It allowed for efficient long-distance transportation of fresh meat without spoilage or degradation. Louis Figuier, renowned for his contributions to popular science literature, may have been involved in creating this detailed cutaway illustration that reveals the inner workings of this revolutionary cold meat box on wheels. As we admire this fascinating glimpse into history, let us appreciate how far we have come in terms of transportation and food industry advancements since these early days of refrigeration technology on trains.
