EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Ces voiturettes!", takes us back to the early 20th century in France. Created by the talented artist Jean Villemot, this French motoring cartoon from 1913 captures a moment of everyday life on the road. The scene depicts a parked car with steam rising from its radiator cap as its driver engages in conversation with a cyclist. The attention to detail is remarkable, showcasing the fashionable attire of both men involved in this roadside chat. The driver is seen wearing an overcoat and beret, while the cyclist sports a classic hat and stylish clothes of that era. This artwork was originally featured in Omnia, a popular car magazine during October 1913. Villemot's artistic skills shine through as he masterfully portrays not only the characters but also their surroundings. The composition beautifully captures the essence of transportation during that time period - bicycles and cars coexisting on country roads. As we gaze upon this vintage print, we are transported to an era where motor cars were still relatively new and exciting innovations. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of technology and transportation. With its timeless charm and historical significance, this art piece by Jean Villemot continues to captivate viewers even after more than a century since its creation.
