Cab Horses by Gaslight
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that takes us back to the bustling streets of 19th-century Glasgow. The artist, Joseph Crawhall, skillfully captures the essence of this era with his watercolor and bodycolor technique on linen. In this scene, we are transported to a dimly lit street illuminated only by gaslights. A hansom cab drawn by two majestic horses dominates the foreground. These magnificent creatures stand tall and proud in their harnesses, their docked tails adding an air of elegance to their appearance. Crawhall's attention to detail is evident in every stroke as he portrays the intricate design of the carriage and its ornate decorations. The Victorian influence is unmistakable, from the blinkers worn by the horses to the overall grandeur of the scene. This artwork not only showcases Crawhall's talent but also provides us with a glimpse into a bygone era when horse-drawn carriages were a common mode of transportation. It reminds us of simpler times before automobiles took over our cities. The "Cab Horses by Gaslight" print now resides in Glasgow's Burrell Collection, serving as a testament to both Crawhall's artistic prowess and Scotland's rich cultural heritage. This piece transports viewers back in time and invites them to appreciate the beauty and gracefulness of these magnificent animals amidst an enchanting gaslit atmosphere.
