EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Ro-ro camp (valet parking on horse)" takes us back to a bygone era, capturing a unique moment in history. The image, originally published in the Tour du monde under the direction of Edouard Charton in 1881 Paris, showcases an intriguing scene from late 19th-century America. In this engraving, we witness the daily life of an American valet parking service like no other. A man is depicted skillfully maneuvering his horse-drawn transport vehicle through the night as he tends to his clients' needs. The coupling between man and horse is evident, showcasing their harmonious partnership. This snapshot into Americana reveals not only a practical means of transportation but also sheds light on the morals and customs prevalent during that time period. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and adaptability in utilizing animals for various tasks. The image's monochromatic aesthetic adds depth and nostalgia to the composition, emphasizing its historical significance. Leonard de Selva's masterful capture allows us to glimpse into this enchanting world where horses played an integral role in everyday life. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from the Selva Collection, we are reminded of how much has changed since then while appreciating our shared heritage with those who came before us.
