EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white illustration from 1925 takes us back to the 17th-18th century, offering a glimpse into the fascinating world of animal traction. The image showcases a unique form of transportation known as "the wheelchair" or "dressing" which was widely used during this era in France. The intricately detailed engraving depicts a beautifully crafted carriage-like vehicle, pulled by two majestic horses. This mode of transport was not only functional but also exuded elegance and sophistication. The artist's use of color adds depth and richness to the scene, allowing us to imagine the vibrant hues that would have adorned these carriages in real life. As we delve into history through this anonymous artwork, it becomes apparent that animal traction played a crucial role in facilitating movement and circulation during this period. Whether for personal travel or public transportation, these carriages were an essential part of everyday life. Now preserved in a private collection, this print offers us a rare opportunity to appreciate the craftsmanship and ingenuity of our ancestors. It serves as a reminder that even centuries ago, humans found innovative ways to navigate their surroundings with grace and style. Stefano Bianchetti's restoration work on this piece ensures its longevity while honoring its historical significance. As we admire this illustration today, let us marvel at how far we have come while acknowledging the timeless beauty inherent in our past traditions.
