EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a horse litter from the 16th century in the Spanish Netherlands, beautifully captured by Armand Jean Heins. The image depicts an elegant and ornate carriage-like structure carried by bearers dressed in traditional Belgian costumes. These servants are accompanied by guards armed with halberds, ensuring the safety of the travelers. The horse litter represents a luxurious mode of transport during this historical period. It was commonly used by nobility and high-ranking officials for their journeys across Europe. This particular scene is part of Cortege Historique des Moyens de Transport, a collection that highlights various means of transportation throughout history. The attention to detail in this color lithograph is remarkable, allowing us to appreciate not only the intricate design of the horse litter but also the rich cultural heritage it represents. The road on which they travel provides a glimpse into the landscape and environment of that time. As we delve into this image, we are transported back to an era where such grandeur was reserved for those who held power and influence. It serves as a reminder of how much our modes of transport have evolved over centuries while preserving aspects of our past. This print captures both historical significance and artistic beauty, making it a valuable addition to any private collection or art enthusiast's repertoire.
