EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Oxen pulling carts laden with goods and people, in the background an Indian city" captured by Jan Luyken and Charles Angot in 1689, we are transported to a bustling scene of daily life in India. The image showcases the incredible strength and endurance of oxen as they tirelessly pull heavily loaded carts through the streets. The foreground is filled with these magnificent animals, their muscular bodies straining under the weight of various goods and passengers. Their determination is palpable as they navigate through a sea of people who go about their daily activities. The carts themselves are overflowing with colorful fabrics, spices, fruits, vegetables, and other commodities that contribute to the vibrant tapestry of Indian trade. As our gaze shifts towards the background, we catch a glimpse of an enchanting Indian cityscape. Towering minarets pierce the sky while intricately designed buildings create a mesmerizing skyline. The city's energy seems to blend seamlessly with nature as palm trees sway gently in the breeze. This extraordinary print from Quint Lox's collection not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to centuries-old traditions that continue to shape India's cultural identity today. It invites us to reflect on how animal traction has played an integral role in shaping societies around the world throughout history.
