EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene straight out of the 16th century, showcasing a horse-drawn decorated wagon carrying professional musicians. Created in 1886 by Armand Jean Heins, this colour lithograph exudes an air of decadence and extravagance that was characteristic of the era. The ornate details adorning both the wagon and its equine companions speak to the wealth and opulence of those who commissioned such grand displays. The musicians themselves are depicted with their instruments in hand, ready to entertain with their melodic tunes. Their presence adds an element of liveliness to the already vibrant composition, as if they were about to burst into song at any moment. It is fascinating to imagine how these skilled artists would have traveled from place to place, bringing joy and entertainment wherever they went. This image is part of a larger series called "Cortege Historique des Moyens de Transport" which provides a historical overview of various modes of transportation throughout time. It serves as a reminder not only of our rich cultural heritage but also highlights the importance placed on music during this period. Displayed here courtesy of Ken Welsh's private collection, this print offers us a glimpse into an extravagant past where artistry and luxury intertwined harmoniously. Its timeless appeal continues to captivate viewers today, reminding us that beauty can be found even in centuries-old traditions.
