EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, taken by the Illustrated London News Ltd in 1919, showcases a Taxi de Luxe, a motor vehicle run by its driver-owner. The Taxi de Luxe was a symbol of progress and luxury during the post-World War I era, representing a significant shift from the traditional horse-drawn cabs that had dominated urban transportation prior. The driver, dressed in a smart uniform, sits confidently behind the wheel, his gaze focused on the road ahead. The vehicle itself is a marvel of the time, boasting a sleek design, ornate detailing, and a spacious interior. The taxi's luxurious features, such as plush seats, comfortable upholstery, and a separate compartment for luggage, set it apart from the more utilitarian taxis of the time. The Taxi de Luxe was a status symbol for both the driver and the passengers. For the driver, it represented a successful business venture and a step up from the simpler, less profitable horse-drawn cabs. For passengers, it offered a comfortable and luxurious ride, making their journey a pleasurable experience. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a unique perspective on the evolution of transportation during the early 20th century. It captures the essence of a bygone era, when motor vehicles were a new and exciting innovation, and the Taxi de Luxe was the epitome of luxury and sophistication on the streets.
