EDITORS COMMENTS
On the way to the derby, this 19th-century engraving takes us back in time to a bygone era of leisurely travel and sporting excitement. The image showcases a bustling scene as a fiacre and omnibus, both pulled by majestic horses, make their way towards the highly anticipated derby match between two neighboring cities in England. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every element of this print. From the intricate costumes worn by men and women alike, reflecting the fashion trends of the time, to the well-groomed horses exuding strength and grace, every aspect transports us into this vibrant moment from history. Public transport vehicles like these were not only practical modes of transportation but also symbols of status and sophistication. As they traverse through picturesque countryside landscapes dotted with farms and wildlife, we can almost feel ourselves being swept away on an exhilarating journey filled with anticipation for what lies ahead at the derby. This enchanting artwork captures not just a snapshot of British culture but also celebrates human ingenuity in harnessing animal power for transportation. It serves as a reminder that even amidst modern advancements, there is still something magical about witnessing such harmonious coexistence between man and beast. Preserved within private collections today, prints like these continue to inspire awe and appreciation for our rich cultural heritage. They allow us glimpses into moments long gone while reminding us that traditions like derbies have stood the test of time.
