This vibrant and lively lithograph by Thomas Crane captures a bustling scene on the streets of London in the 19th century. Passengers are seen traveling on an omnibus, while below, children playfully turn cartwheels on the street. The colorful illustration is filled with intricate details that bring this historical moment to life. The image portrays a snapshot of daily life during this era, showcasing both the transportation methods and leisure activities of the time. The horse-drawn omnibus serves as a central focus, highlighting how people traveled around the city back then. Meanwhile, children's carefree joy is evident as they engage in playful acrobatics on the busy street. Accompanying lines of verse about traveling on an omnibus add another layer to this artwork's narrative. Published in "London Town" and designed by Crane himself along with Ellen Houghton, this print offers not only visual delight but also poetic charm. Through its depiction of fashion and clothing styles from that period, this litho provides valuable insights into Victorian society. It showcases various aspects such as transport, childhood innocence, and everyday journeys taken by travelers.
