EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Motoring: a dangerous turn" we are transported back to the early 20th century, where love and danger collide on a French road. The vibrant color litho captures a moment of peril as two lovers find themselves oblivious to the impending disaster ahead. As the car hurtles around a treacherous bend, the passengers are locked in an intimate embrace, their lips pressed together in passionate bliss. Completely unaware of their surroundings, they are distracted by their affectionate connection while Cupid himself sits atop the wheel, seemingly guiding them towards catastrophe. The postcard serves as a reminder of how easily one can become lost in love's enchantment and lose sight of potential dangers that lie ahead. It speaks to the universal theme of being consumed by desire and oblivious to external threats. With its rich detail and vivid colors, this artwork transports us into an era when motoring was still relatively new and accidents were more common. It serves as both a cautionary tale about distractions behind the wheel and an ode to reckless romance. This print is not just an image frozen in time; it is also a glimpse into French culture during that period – where passion intertwined with danger on picturesque European roads. A true testament to Xavier Sager's artistic talent, this piece invites viewers to reflect on our own vulnerabilities when navigating life's twists and turns.
