EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the aftermath of a tragic accident that occurred on the Paris-Brest railway line in 1910. The image shows a car completely crushed by a powerful steam locomotive, serving as a stark reminder of the devastating consequences of recklessness and disregard for safety. The Countess de Nicolay, her son, and their driver lost their lives when they attempted to cross the railway line despite the level crossing gates being closed. This ill-fated decision led to an unimaginable collision between their automobile and the unstoppable force of the oncoming train. The intensity of this moment is vividly portrayed through this colour lithograph, which was originally published in Le Petit Journal. It serves as both an illustration and a somber warning about the dangers inherent in transportation during that era. As we gaze upon this haunting scene, it prompts us to reflect on our own responsibility as passengers or drivers today. It reminds us to always prioritize safety and adhere to traffic regulations, ensuring that such tragic accidents are avoided at all costs. This poignant artwork from Bridgeman Images not only commemorates those who lost their lives but also serves as a timeless reminder of how crucial it is to exercise caution while navigating our ever-evolving modes of transport.
