EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Motors in London (engraving)" takes us back to the bustling streets of 19th century London. The image showcases a significant moment in history when automobiles were beginning to revolutionize public transport in the city. In this engraving, we see a scene filled with running motors, specifically an impressive twelve-seated omnibus manufactured by the British Motor Company. This vehicle, known as the De Dion, stands out among other forms of transportation present on the road. Its sleek design and advanced technology symbolize progress and modernity. The location is Oxford Circus, one of London's busiest intersections even then. As we observe this snapshot from over a century ago, it becomes apparent that despite being taken so long ago, some elements remain familiar - crowded streets and people going about their daily lives. This print not only captures a pivotal moment in transportation history but also serves as a reminder of how far we have come since then. It allows us to appreciate the advancements made in automotive engineering and marvel at how these early motors paved the way for our modern-day vehicles. With its historical significance and artistic appeal, this stunning engraving from Bridgeman Images is sure to captivate any viewer interested in both art and history alike.
