EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of dray horses in London, circa 1930s. The scene transports us to an era long past, where the streets of the bustling city were still graced by the presence of these powerful and noble animals. Dray horses were an essential part of London's transportation system during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. They were used to transport goods, particularly heavy ones, from the docks to various destinations within the city. The horses were often hitched to large carts or drays, which were pulled through the narrow streets, navigating the twists and turns with remarkable agility. In this photograph, we see a team of dray horses standing in the streets of London, their powerful muscles rippling as they rest. Each horse wears a nosebag, a simple yet effective device designed to keep the animals content and focused on their work. The nosebags were filled with hay or oats, providing a constant supply of forage for the horses as they worked long hours. The photograph is a testament to the rich cultural and historical significance of these animals in London's history. It captures a moment in time when horses were still the primary mode of transportation for goods within the city. The image is also a reminder of the close relationship between humans and animals, and the essential role they played in shaping the city's economic and social fabric. This photograph is an albumen print or collodion print, popular methods of photographic processes during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It is an archival image, carefully preserved and now available for us to enjoy and learn from, offering a glimpse into the past and a deeper appreciation for the history of London and its transportation systems.
