EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing a man and woman engrossed in the art of navigation. Taken from the early 20th century, this colour litho by Harrison Fisher portrays an era when maps were essential tools for travelers exploring new territories. Seated inside their automobile, the couple is depicted reading a map with intense concentration. The man's dapper attire reflects the fashion trends of the time, donning a stylish coat and hat complete with goggles to shield his eyes from dust or wind. The woman exudes elegance in her fashionable dress, embodying grace even amidst the challenges of navigating unknown roads. The image evokes nostalgia for a simpler era when technology had not yet replaced traditional means of transport. It reminds us of how people relied on maps as their primary guide to reach their destinations. Their determination to find their way despite being lost showcases resilience and resourcefulness. This artwork offers viewers a glimpse into daily life during that period - where driving was still considered an adventure rather than routine. It invites us to imagine ourselves sitting beside them, sharing in their excitement and anticipation as they embark on an unforgettable journey through uncharted territory. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece of history so that we can appreciate both its artistic beauty and its historical significance today.
