EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning wood engraving from London in 1882 captures the essence of a bygone era with its depiction of a country carrier's wagon with a hood. The intricate details of the timbers and materials used to construct the wagon are beautifully rendered, showcasing the craftsmanship of the engraver. The image transports us back in time to when horse-drawn wagons were a common sight on rural roads, carrying goods and passengers between towns and villages. The addition of the hood adds an element of practicality to the design, protecting both cargo and driver from the elements during long journeys. The presence of horses in this scene further emphasizes the reliance on animal power for transportation in this period. These majestic creatures were essential partners in moving people and goods across vast distances before the advent of modern vehicles. Overall, this wood engraving is not just a historical artifact but also a work of art that captures a moment in time when simplicity and functionality were valued above all else. It serves as a reminder of our connection to our past and how far we have come in terms of technological advancements since then.
