The Battle of Flowers at Nice, the Carriages passing along the Promenade des Anglais
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a vibrant and enchanting scene from the past. This lithographic print by Samuel Begg beautifully depicts a moment in time when carriages adorned with magnificent floral displays traverse the famous Promenade des Anglais in Nice, France. The image transports us to 1899, as we witness the splendor of this annual event through Begg's skilled artistry. The carriages, elegantly drawn by horses, are transformed into moving gardens bursting with colorful blooms. Each carriage seems to compete for attention as they pass by spectators lining the promenade. This lively procession showcases not only the creativity and craftsmanship involved in decorating these horse-drawn vehicles but also highlights their significance as a mode of transport during that era. The juxtaposition of nature's beauty against man-made structures creates an intriguing visual contrast. As we delve deeper into this artwork, we can almost feel ourselves immersed in the atmosphere of Provence and Riviera. The scent of flowers fills our senses while witnessing this unique battle where petals replace bullets. Begg's lithograph is not just an artistic masterpiece; it also serves as a historical document capturing a cherished tradition that has endured over centuries. It reminds us of how celebrations like "The Battle of Flowers" have become an integral part of cultural heritage across Europe. This remarkable print invites us to appreciate both nature's wonders and human ingenuity while taking us on a delightful journey back in time
