EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print takes us back to the 19th century in the Netherlands, where postilions, carriages, and mail coaches were an integral part of transportation. The image showcases a picturesque scene filled with riders dressed in Belgian uniforms, musicians playing lively tunes, and a majestic horse-drawn coach. The attention to detail is remarkable as every element comes alive through the use of color lithography by Armand Jean Heins. It's evident that this artwork was created with great care and precision. As we delve into history through this illustration from "Cortege Historique des Moyens de Transport" (1890), we can imagine the bustling roads of the Benelux countries in Europe. The Dutch landscape serves as a backdrop for this enchanting procession. The post chaise and pullman car stand out amidst the flurry of activity, symbolizing efficient communication during those times. The skilled driver guides his horses along the road while postilions accompany him on their own steeds. This piece not only captures a moment frozen in time but also highlights how transport played an essential role in connecting people across nations. It reminds us of simpler times when horseback riding was both a sport and means of travel. With its rich historical context and artistic brilliance, this print transports us back to an era long gone but forever cherished.
