EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the vibrant and bustling modern world of 1901, as depicted in this illustration by renowned French artist Albert Robida. The scene unfolds from a bird's eye viewpoint, showcasing a colourful and lively modern street filled with an eclectic mix of transportation and fashion. Women in extravagant dresses, adorned with feathers and frills, gracefully navigate the crowded roadway. Horse-drawn chariots, their horses prancing proudly, share the road with daring cyclists and innovative motor vehicles. The air is thick with excitement and anticipation, as if a carnival atmosphere has taken over the city. This stunning illustration, titled "Modern Style Street," was originally published in the French satirical magazine "L'Illustration" on March 10, 1901, under the banner of "Album des Maîtres de la Caricature." Robida, a master of capturing the essence of modern life, skillfully portrays the energy and progress of the early 20th century. His use of bold colours and intricate details bring this modern street to life, transporting us back in time to witness the wonders of a bygone era.
