EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a postman diligently delivering mail in the Transvaal during the late 19th century. The vibrant colors of this lithograph bring to life the bustling scene, showcasing the rich history of postal service in South Africa. The French School artist behind this masterpiece created it as part of a series illustrating postal services around the world for Chocolat Carpentier, a renowned chocolate manufacturer. This promotional card aimed to entice customers with its charming depiction of daily life and evoke feelings of nostalgia. The postman depicted here is dressed in his distinctive uniform, proudly carrying his letter satchel while mounted on a horse. With an air of urgency and determination, he symbolizes the speed and efficiency required to deliver mail promptly. As we gaze at this image, we are transported back in time to witness not only an important aspect of communication but also gain insight into African culture during that era. The presence of flags signifies national pride and highlights how integral postal services were to connecting communities across vast distances. This photograph serves as both an advertisement for Chocolat Carpentier's delectable treats and a window into history. It reminds us that even mundane tasks like delivering mail played significant roles in shaping societies worldwide.
