The Progress of Locomotion - A Glimpse into the Humorous Side of Travel in 1913
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a postcard sent in 1913, showcasing "The Progress of Locomotion" by a French photographer. The image, part of a private collection, is an intriguing blend of humor and historical significance. In this whimsical scene, we see a male figure pushing a wheelbarrow while wearing an amusing expression on his face. Beside him stands a female passenger with an equally comical demeanor. They are surrounded by various vehicles that represent different modes of transportation from that era - cars, motorcars, and even postage stamps symbolizing the postal service. The postcard not only reflects the progress made in locomotion during the early 20th century but also highlights the lighter side of travel. It reminds us that even amidst technological advancements, there was room for laughter and amusement. With its French origins, this photograph provides insight into European culture at the time. France's influence on transport innovation is evident as it showcases their automobiles alongside other means of transportation. As we gaze upon this image from over a century ago, we can't help but appreciate how far we have come in terms of communication and passenger transportation. This postcard serves as both a reminder to cherish our present-day advancements while also celebrating the humor found within our journey through history.
