EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Rossel petrol car, a remarkable piece of engineering from the late 19th century. The artwork depicts a four-seater vehicle with its steering mechanism prominently placed at the center, while headlights illuminate the path ahead on the right side. This particular automobile was manufactured by Edouard Rossel's company in Lille, France during the 1890s. The Rossel petrol car stands as a testament to technological advancements of its time, as it utilized engines based on or licensed from renowned German manufacturer Daimler. However, despite its promising beginnings, Rossel's venture into automobile manufacturing was short-lived and ceased operations just a few years after its establishment. As we gaze upon this historical illustration, we are transported back to an era when automobiles were still in their infancy. It serves as a reminder of how far transportation technology has come since then and highlights France's contribution to automotive history. This monochrome artwork is sourced from Jules-Louis Breton's first volume (1897) of La Revue Scientifique et Industrielle – his scientific and industrial review publication. Its inclusion in Science Photo Library allows us to appreciate not only the beauty of this vintage vehicle but also gain insight into early French engineering prowess.
