EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases George Moore's remarkable invention, the steam man, dating back to 1893. Created by the talented artist himself, this piece of art captures both the essence of innovation and the spirit of a bygone era. The steam man is depicted wearing an intriguing ensemble that combines elements of science and fashion. Clad in a unique dress and donning a helmet, he exudes an air of curiosity and adventure. The concept behind this creation was truly groundbreaking for its time. Powered by a petrol-fired boiler operating a 1/2 hp engine, this extraordinary contraption boasted impressive capabilities. With walking speeds ranging from 7 to 9 mph, it revolutionized transportation during the late 19th century. What sets this artwork apart is its attention to detail - particularly in how it channels exhaust through both the helmet and an unconventional cigar-shaped pipe. This whimsical touch adds character to an already fascinating composition. George Moore's steam man stands as a testament to human ingenuity and serves as a reminder of our relentless pursuit of progress throughout history. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece, we are transported back in time to witness one man's vision come to life amidst the backdrop of industrialization. This print from Heritage Images provides us with not only an artistic representation but also offers insight into the technological advancements that shaped our world centuries ago. It is indeed a captivating glimpse into George Moore's inventive genius captured forever on paper.
