"Exploring the World Through Carte Rêve: A Glimpse into the Late 19th Century" Step back in time and join us on a journey through the late 19th century with carte rêve, as we delve into captivating moments captured in colorful lithographs. From postmen delivering mail to soldiers guarding precious banknotes, these images offer a window into different corners of the world during this era. In Transvaal, South Africa, witness a dedicated postman braving rugged terrain to deliver mail amidst breathtaking landscapes. The vibrant lithograph transports us to Haiti, where another postman diligently carries out his duties against a backdrop of tropical beauty. Traveling further north to Holland, we encounter an enchanting scene - a postman engaging in conversation with a woman delivering milk in her dogcart. This charming interaction showcases the interconnectedness of daily life activities. Continuing our exploration across Europe, an Italian postman takes center stage as he navigates bustling streets while ensuring letters reach their intended recipients. Meanwhile, in Bulgaria, another brave postal worker fights off robbers determined to seize valuable parcels entrusted to him. Across the Atlantic Ocean lies America's wintry landscape where a dedicated U. S. A. Postman trudges through snow-covered paths to ensure that no letter is left undelivered despite harsh weather conditions. Venturing even farther eastward brings us face-to-face with Madagascar's unique culture and customs. Here we find yet another diligent postman navigating diverse terrains and delivering important correspondence throughout this exotic island nation. But it's not just about postal services; carte rêve also reveals intriguing glimpses into everyday life elsewhere. In Paris, promotional cards for Lefevre-Utile (LU) biscuits showcase both sides of delectable treats that tantalize taste buds and evoke nostalgia for simpler times spent savoring delicious snacks.
