EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transports us back to the late 19th century in Antwerp, Belgium. The image showcases milk merchants and their trusty dog cart, a common sight during that era. The unknown artist beautifully captures the essence of daily life in this bustling Flemish region. The composition is striking, with the milk merchants standing proudly beside their horse-drawn cart filled with large barrels of fresh milk. Their faces reflect years of hard work and dedication to their trade. A loyal canine companion stands faithfully by their side, adding an endearing touch to the scene. The details are exquisite - from the worn walking sticks leaning against the cart to the intricate coupling mechanism connecting it all together. This photograph not only documents a moment frozen in time but also offers insight into historical transportation methods and traditional Belgian food culture. Leonard de Selva's skillful photography brings out every nuance of this remarkable image, emphasizing its timeless appeal. As we gaze upon this print from a private collection, we are reminded of how art can capture history's most ordinary moments and transform them into extraordinary works that continue to captivate viewers today.
