EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a London horse bus from the early 20th century, showcasing a fascinating glimpse into the past. The image, taken by an English photographer in the 20th century, is part of a private collection. The horse bus stands proudly on a bustling street, surrounded by advertisements that offer a glimpse into the historic era. A passenger can be seen riding inside the bus while the driver skillfully guides his horses through traffic. A policeman stands nearby, ensuring order on the road. This photograph not only showcases public transport in England during this time period but also provides insight into British culture and history. It evokes nostalgia for an era when horse-drawn vehicles were still prevalent before they were gradually replaced by motorized transportation. The photo's composition and clarity are enhanced by its gravure printing technique, adding depth to every detail captured within it. It was originally used as an illustration for "Wonderful London" by St John Adcock around 1930. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to experience what it was like to travel through London streets in days gone by. This piece of history serves as a reminder of how far transportation has evolved over the years and allows us to appreciate our modern means of getting around even more.
