"Transports en commun: A Journey Through Time" Step into the past and explore the fascinating world of "transports en commun. " From snowy landscapes to bustling city streets, this captivating collection of artworks and illustrations takes us on a visual journey through various modes of public transportation. In the oil painting "The Train in the Snow, 1875, " we witness a locomotive gracefully gliding through a winter wonderland. The artist's meticulous brushstrokes capture both the serenity of nature and the power of modern technology. Moving on to alphabets, we encounter an enchanting engraving featuring animals and objects associated with transportation. Among them are an omnibus, symbolizing urban mobility, and an elegant swan (oie), representing graceful movement across waterways. As we delve deeper into history, chromolithography transports us to a bustling train station where Western tourists return from a luxurious cruise. This vivid print from the late 19th century immerses us in their excitement as they disembark from their voyage. The musical realm also embraces transportation themes. In Angelino Trojelli's "Alphabet Musical de Mlle Lili, " different movements such as largo, allegro, and prestissimo come alive through intricate engravings. Each note carries us along on its melodic journey. War alphabet illustrations by Henri Lanos depict German soldiers taken prisoner during a wagon journey. These poignant images remind us that even amidst conflict, transport remains essential for both military operations and civilian life. Octave Uzanne's book "The Locomotion Through the Ages" offers glimpses into historical public transport systems. From coches traveling between Paris and Versailles to early trains revolutionizing travel experiences worldwide – these illustrations showcase how society embraced new means of getting around. Humorous moments also find their place among our collection. Thomas Rowlandson's hand-colored engraving portrays a coach overloaded with passengers and luggage, comically driving into a pond.
