EDITORS COMMENTS
After breakfast, drivers return to the road: the beginning of motor transport by Robida captures a pivotal moment in history when the world was on the brink of a transportation revolution. This photo print, taken in 1897 by Albert Robida, showcases an era where horse-drawn carriages were gradually being replaced by automobiles. In this enchanting scene, we witness a group of drivers eagerly embarking on their journeys after enjoying their morning meal. The image exudes a sense of anticipation and excitement as these pioneers set off into uncharted territory with their newfangled vehicles. The intricately detailed drawing beautifully depicts early automotive designs that are both charmingly antiquated and remarkably innovative for their time. Robida's artwork not only serves as a visual documentation of this transformative period but also offers glimpses into society's changing dynamics. As cars become more prevalent, they bring about shifts in lifestyle and mobility patterns that would shape future generations. Leonard de Selva's expert photography brings out every intricate detail and nuance present in Robida's original work. Through his lens, we can appreciate the fine lines and delicate shading that make this piece truly remarkable. This print is an invaluable historical artifact that transports us back to an era when horse power gave way to engine power – forever altering how we navigate our world.
