EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century, titled "All the World going out to spend Christmas" takes us back in time to a bustling holiday season. The image showcases various modes of transportation that people used during this festive period. From horse-drawn carriages and bicycles to trains and sledges, every means of transport seems to be in motion. The silhouette-like figures create a sense of mystery as they embark on their journeys, each with their own destination in mind. It's fascinating how this single print manages to capture the essence of travel during Christmas across different parts of the world. As we delve into this historical artwork, it's impossible not to imagine ourselves amidst the excitement and anticipation felt by those depicted. Whether it was visiting loved ones or exploring new places, everyone seemed eager to embrace the spirit of Christmas through travel. The attention to detail is remarkable; one can almost hear the clatter of hooves on cobblestone streets or feel the chilly winter breeze against their face while riding a bicycle. This enchanting scene truly encapsulates both the joyous atmosphere and diverse range of transportation options available during that era. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' preservation efforts, we are fortunate enough to witness this snapshot from history – an evocative reminder that even centuries ago, people were united by their desire for adventure and connection during Christmastime.
