EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of two elegant women enjoying a leisurely ride in a rickshaw through the vibrant streets of the late Victorian era. Dressed in beautiful oriental costumes, adorned with intricate patterns and rich colors, the women appear to be completely at ease as they are pulled along by a determined rickshaw man. The cool breeze plays with their fans and parasols, providing a much-needed respite from the warm sun. The rickshaw, a popular mode of transportation in Asia during this period, adds an exotic touch to the scene. Its bright colors of green, blue, pink, red, orange, and yellow stand out against the backdrop of the bustling Victorian street. The women's outfits, with their long flowing skirts and intricate detailing, are a stark contrast to the simple yet functional design of the rickshaw. The scene is filled with a sense of adventure and discovery, as the women explore the unfamiliar surroundings of this far-off land. The rickshaw man, dressed in traditional attire, is focused on his task, ensuring the ladies have a comfortable journey. This image, from The David Pearson Collection at Mary Evans Picture Library, is a beautiful reminder of the fascination and intrigue that the East held for the Western world during the late Victorian era. It is a snapshot of a moment in time, frozen in history, that continues to captivate and inspire us today.
