About the Item

Travel Print: Going to Rome by Vetturino, 1820s Hand-Colored Engraving This delightful hand-colored engraving depicts a lively scene titled "Going to Rome by Vetturino," offering a glimpse into 19th-century travel in Italy. Published in the 1820s by Baldwin, Cradock & Joy, this print is part of a series showcasing everyday life, customs, and travel across Italy, capturing the essence of a bygone era with charming detail. The central focus is a traditional vetturino carriage drawn by a team of donkeys, a common sight in Italy during this period. Inside the carriage, two well-dressed travelers peer out of the window, their expressions conveying a sense of eager anticipation as they journey toward the Eternal City. The carriage is adorned with a crest and is topped with a straw roof for shade, adding a touch of rustic elegance. The coachman, dressed in a long coat and broad-brimmed hat, sits atop the carriage with a whip in hand, guiding the steady-footed donkeys across the Italian landscape. In the foreground, a woman and child sit on the grass near a small cluster of vibrant flowers, adding a warm, domestic touch to the scene. The background features a Roman monument, hinting at the rich historical and cultural tapestry that awaits the travelers. Such prints were popular souvenirs and educational pieces for travelers and collectors, offering a colorful and detailed record of Italian customs and modes of transport. The fine engraving and carefully applied hand coloring bring the scene to life, highlighting the interplay between man, beast, and landscape. Condition: This antique print is in very good condition, with minor foxing and age-related toning that add to its antique charm. The hand coloring remains vibrant and true to its original palette. Framing tips: For a timeless and complementary display, frame this print with a soft cream or warm beige mat and a natural wood or antique gold frame. This choice will enhance the rich, earthy tones of the print and highlight its delightful travel narrative, making it a captivating focal point for any room.
