EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Hack Madeira, 1880s" takes us back to the enchanting era of the late 19th century. The creator of this mesmerizing image remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to its allure. The photograph showcases a picturesque country scene in Madeira, Portugal. A horse-drawn carriage known as a hack stands proudly on a road surrounded by lush greenery. Two majestic horses, their strength evident in their muscular bodies, are harnessed to the carriage ready for transport. The albumen silver print from glass negative technique used to capture this moment in time adds depth and texture to the image. It beautifully captures every intricate detail - from the texture of the horses' manes to the worn wooden wheels of the carriage. As we gaze upon this piece of heritage art preserved at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, we are transported back in time. We can almost hear the clip-clop sound echoing through our imagination as this elegant mode of transportation traverses along winding roads. This photograph not only serves as a visual representation but also provides insight into historical travel and transportation practices during Victorian times. It reminds us that even though much has changed over centuries, there is still beauty in simplicity and tradition that deserves admiration and preservation.
