EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1886 showcases the incredible strength and resilience of porters as they carry goods in baskets on their backs. The colour lithograph, created by Armand Jean Heins, beautifully captures a historical moment in transportation history. In this illustration from "Cortege Historique des Moyens de Transport" we witness the arduous task undertaken by these dedicated individuals. With their burdened loads securely fastened to their backs, the porters navigate through bustling streets with unwavering determination. The image serves as a testament to the power of manpower and highlights the reliance on human strength before modern modes of transportation took over. These brave travelers embark on long journeys, carrying essential supplies for those who depend on them. Notably absent are any signs of mechanized assistance; instead, it is solely reliant upon the physical prowess of these remarkable individuals. The absence of horses or mules further emphasizes this point, showcasing how humans were once at the forefront of transporting goods across vast distances. As we admire this historical snapshot frozen in time, let us appreciate and remember those who worked tirelessly to ensure that necessities reached their destinations. This photograph reminds us that progress often comes at a cost but also serves as a reminder of our shared human spirit and determination throughout history.
