EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous event in history - the transportation of a monumental bronze statue of Vercingetorix, the legendary Gallic chief. Created by French sculptor Auguste Bartholdi, this larger-than-life sculpture is being carefully transported through the bustling streets of Paris on a lorry. The image showcases the intersection between art and technology, as this innovative method of transport allows for the safe delivery of such an impressive artwork. Crowds gather along the road to catch a glimpse of this magnificent statue, their eyes fixed on Vercingetorix, who stands proudly atop his pedestal. Vercingetorix himself appears to be watching over his people with determination and strength. As a symbol of Gaulish resistance against Roman conquest, he embodies bravery and national pride. This powerful representation serves as a reminder of France's rich cultural heritage. The collaboration between Bartholdi and renowned automobile manufacturer De Dion Bouton further emphasizes France's commitment to innovation and progress during the early 20th century. The combination of artistic excellence and technological advancements showcased in this photograph truly make it an extraordinary piece that encapsulates both history and beauty. Displayed in vibrant color lithography, this print from Le Petit Journal offers viewers a glimpse into an important moment in time - when tradition meets modernity on the streets of Paris.
