EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Jean Duvallon captures a moment of suspense and urgency in the late 19th century. The scene depicts two figures, G and H, with G warning H about an approaching freight train. G's words "Ware to you! the freight train will pass!" ring out as H exclaims "Helas! One minute too late!" The tension is palpable as time seems to stand still in this snapshot of a crucial moment.
The image is part of ABC L'ORIENT EXPRESS, a publication by Bernardin & Fils, editors in Paris circa 1895. Printed on indéchirable canvas across 12 pages, this piece showcases Duvallon's mastery of lithography and color. The vibrant hues bring the characters to life against the backdrop of a bustling European city.
As we gaze upon this historical gem, we are transported back to a bygone era filled with danger and excitement. The alphabet primer theme adds an educational element to the artwork, inviting viewers to ponder the significance of each letter in relation to the dramatic scene unfolding before them.
Jean Duvallon's work continues to captivate audiences with its timeless appeal and artistic flair. This print serves as a reminder of the power of visual storytelling and its ability to transcend time and space.
