EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this photograph of a horse-drawn bus making its way through the bustling streets of London's Strand during the Victorian or Edwardian era. The image, part of The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us to a bygone era, filled with the sights, sounds, and smells of London over a century ago. The horse, harnessed and ready for work, pulls the elegant bus with an air of quiet determination. The bus, adorned with intricate designs and ornate lanterns, exudes an old-world charm that is both enchanting and intriguing. The passengers, dressed in their finest attire, appear to be deep in conversation or lost in thought, oblivious to the passing scenery. The Strand, a major thoroughfare in London, is bustling with activity. Horse-drawn carriages, omnibuses, and pedestrians fill the streets, creating a lively and vibrant scene. The buildings along the street are a mix of architectural styles, from the grandeur of the Royal Opera House to the more modest shops and residences. The lanterns on the bus and the gas lamps lining the streets add an ethereal glow to the scene, casting long shadows and creating a sense of mystery and intrigue. The photograph is a testament to the rich history and character of London during the Victorian and Edwardian eras, a time of change and innovation that continues to captivate and inspire us today.
