EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the year 1911, a time when automobiles were still a novelty on the streets. The image showcases an early car model, its sleek design standing out against the backdrop of a bustling city street. Illustrated by H. Delaspre, this snapshot captures the essence of automobile locomotion in its infancy. The scene depicted here is from Octave Uzanne's book "La Locomotion a Travers le Temps, Les Moeurs et L'Espace" published in Paris in 1912. It offers us a glimpse into how cars were perceived during that era – symbols of progress and modernity. As we delve deeper into this photograph, we notice women dressed in fashionable attire surrounding the vehicle. Their elegant clothing reflects both their social status and the changing fashions of the time. This image not only portrays early car culture but also provides insight into upper-class society during this period. Transportation plays a crucial role in shaping societies, and this print serves as a testament to that fact. It reminds us how automobiles revolutionized passenger transportation and became an integral part of our daily lives over time.
