EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century takes us back in time to Italy's countryside, where steam tramways once traversed the country roads. The image showcases an impressive engine and its accompanying train on the Vercelli Trino Line. The scene exudes a sense of nostalgia as we witness this bygone mode of transport that was once integral to Italian life. The steam-powered trams provided a vital link between towns and villages, connecting communities and facilitating trade. The intricate details captured in this engraving allow us to appreciate the craftsmanship involved in constructing these magnificent machines. The engine stands proudly at the forefront, emitting plumes of smoke as it propels forward with determination. Behind it, a line of carriages follows suit, each filled with passengers eagerly awaiting their destination. Italy's picturesque country roads serve as a backdrop for this historic moment frozen in time. As we gaze upon this print, we can almost hear the rhythmic chugging sound echoing through the rolling hills and envision locals waving from their fields or roadside homes. This artwork not only celebrates Italy's rich transportation history but also highlights its European identity through subtle references like the presence of an Italian flag fluttering proudly above one of the carriages. It serves as a reminder that even then, Italy was part of a larger union - now known as the European Union - fostering connections beyond national borders.
