EDITORS COMMENTS
The Riviera Season, the Motor-Car Procession in the Battle of Flowers at Nice" captures a vibrant moment in history where motor vehicles took center stage amidst a sea of blossoms. This lithograph, created by William Hatherell and now part of a private collection, transports us back to April 8th, 1899. In this lively scene, we witness the fusion of modern technology with traditional festivities. The motor-car procession winds its way through the streets of Nice, adorned with an array of colorful flowers that symbolize joy and celebration. As these magnificent vehicles glide past onlookers, their engines hum harmoniously with the sounds of laughter and applause. The azure blue sea serves as a picturesque backdrop for this enchanting spectacle. The city's reputation as the "city of flowers" is fully realized as petals rain down from above like confetti. The battle of flowers unfolds before our eyes; participants engage in friendly competition to create mesmerizing floral displays atop their cars. Nice's Jardin Public provides an idyllic setting for this grand parade. Lush greenery frames the promenade anglais while elegant architecture adds to the charm and sophistication that defines this region. This engraving not only captures a moment frozen in time but also embodies the spirit and allure of Provence and Riviera during its heyday. It invites us to immerse ourselves in an era where elegance met innovation—a testament to both artistic mastery and human ingenuity.
