EDITORS COMMENTS
- This 19th-century lithograph by Honore Daumier, titled "Now, just like that...all the travellers pass right in front of our noses!", offers a humorous commentary on the arrival of the steam train and the impact it had on traditional modes of transportation and communication. The image depicts a group of men, their exaggerated noses emphasizing their curiosity and awe, gathered outside a post riders' office as they watch a steam train pass by. The scene is a stark contrast to the old-fashioned horse-drawn mail delivery system, which was soon to be overshadowed by the new technology. The lithograph, created by the renowned French artist Honore Daumier, is a testament to the artist's keen observation and satirical wit. The use of black and white, or b&w, adds to the timeless quality of the piece, making it a popular choice for art centres, galleries, and collectors of heritage art. The image is a parody of the rapid changes taking place during the 19th century, as steam trains and other technological advancements began to transform the way people communicated and traveled. The satirical tone of the piece invites viewers to reflect on the impact of new technologies on their own lives and the world around them. The National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC, and other prestigious institutions have recognized the importance of this work, making it a valuable addition to their collections. The lithograph is a reminder of the power of art to capture the essence of historical moments and preserve them for future generations. Overall, "Et dire que maintenant, voilà...tous les voyageurs qui nous passent devant le nez!" is a must-have for anyone interested in the history of art, communication, transportation, or simply the human experience.
