EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph captured by F. J. Mortimer, we are transported back in time to the bustling streets of London in 1900. The image showcases a remarkable sight - a horse-drawn bus known as the "Horse Bus" gracefully making its way through the cityscape. The Horse Bus stands proudly, adorned with intricate details that reflect the craftsmanship of its era. Its elongated body is fitted with large windows, providing passengers with an unobstructed view of their surroundings. A garden-seat design adds a touch of elegance to this unique mode of transportation, inviting travelers to experience both comfort and style during their journey. As our gaze shifts towards the magnificent animal leading this vintage vehicle, we witness the harmonious partnership between man and beast. The majestic horse exudes strength and grace as it pulls effortlessly against the weight of the bus, embodying a sense of unity between nature and human ingenuity. This snapshot from history not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of technological advancements within transportation systems. It allows us to appreciate both the simplicity and complexity inherent in early modes of public transport while marveling at their ability to connect people across vast urban landscapes. F. J Mortimer's masterful composition immortalizes an iconic piece of London's past, offering viewers an opportunity to delve into nostalgia while appreciating artistry through his lens.
