EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print, titled "The Inconvenience Of Kabriolets" takes us back to a bygone era of transportation and fashion. Published in 1909 as part of Eduard Fuchs' illustrious work on social customs throughout history, this image captures a moment that is both humorous and slightly embarrassing. In the picture, we see a lady gracefully dismounting her carriage, only to find herself caught up in the intricate design of her dress. As she struggles to free herself from the clutches of her own attire, her discomfort becomes evident. The delicate fabric reveals more than intended, exposing her legs and challenging the modesty expected during the late 19th century. The kabriolet itself adds an element of charm to the scene. This horse-drawn carriage was popular during that time period for its open-air design and elegance. However, as depicted here, it also presented certain inconveniences for ladies with their elaborate dresses. Through this artwork's clever composition and attention to detail, Ken Welsh has captured not only a comical situation but also offers us a glimpse into societal norms and expectations surrounding transportation and fashion over a century ago. It serves as a reminder that even in simpler times when carriages were commonplace modes of transportations; life still had its moments of unexpected challenges - like getting entangled in one's own clothing while trying to disembark from an elegant kabriolet!
