About the Item
The circa 1920 original poster by Fernel titled "La Course Triptyque" is a captivating example of early 20th-century visual storytelling. Designed as a triptych—a three-panel composition—it humorously captures the dynamic and chaotic world of transportation during a period of rapid industrialization and mechanization.
This artwork likely depicts a playful narrative of a race or encounter between traditional horse-drawn carts and the modern automobile, a theme that resonated with audiences of the time as they navigated the societal shift from old-world traditions to modern technology. Each panel unfolds a segment of the story, emphasizing movement, conflict, and resolution with a satirical edge.
Fernel’s work combines humor with social commentary, reflecting the anxieties and excitement surrounding technological advancements in the early 20th century. The juxtaposition of the horse-drawn carriage—a symbol of tradition—and the automobile—a marker of progress—highlights the evolving modes of transportation and their impact on everyday life.
Posters like "La Course Triptyque" were not only artistic expressions but also served as cultural artifacts, capturing the essence of their era. This piece stands out for its narrative style, offering viewers a sequence of events in a single composition, much like a comic strip. It remains a delightful testament to the creativity and wit of interwar poster design.
