EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving from 1919, the French School offers a visionary glimpse into the future. As life intensifies and speeds up, we witness a bustling street scene where everyone is engrossed in their own business. The image portrays a world where individuals rely on scooters to navigate through the fast-paced environment. The artwork captures the essence of anticipation for what lies ahead in the twentieth century. A schoolboy and schoolgirl can be seen riding their scooters with excitement, symbolizing youth embracing progress. Meanwhile, a woman exudes grace as she confidently rides her scooter, challenging traditional gender roles. This illustration was featured in an almanac from L'Eclair newspaper in Montpellier, showcasing its relevance during that time period. It serves as a reminder of how newspapers played an essential role in disseminating information and shaping public opinion. The artist's attention to detail is evident throughout the engraving - from depicting workers carrying baskets filled with goods to capturing snippets of everyday life such as people reading books or shopping. This portrayal reflects society's growing reliance on modern means of conveyance and highlights the rapidity at which our lives are evolving. Overall, this print invites viewers to contemplate not only technological advancements but also societal changes brought about by modernization. It presents us with an intriguing vision of what may lie ahead while reminding us of our shared humanity amidst these transformations.
