EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming print captures a moment in history on the River Thames, circa 1860. In the image, a lock on the river is being opened by a man and a small child to allow an approaching barge to pass through. The barge, pulled by a horse along the river bank, represents a mode of transport that was once common along Britain's canals.
The scene is filled with historical significance as it showcases the traditional method of transporting goods via waterways during this time period. The man, dressed in typical attire for the era, is accompanied by his loyal dog as they work together to operate the lock.
The presence of the small child adds an element of innocence and wonder to the scene as they observe their father at work. It serves as a reminder of how everyday life looked like back then and highlights the importance of passing down knowledge from one generation to another.
Overall, this print from Mary Evans Picture Library offers viewers a glimpse into a bygone era where simplicity reigned supreme and transportation relied heavily on manual labor and animal power. It truly captures a snapshot of history that is both fascinating and nostalgic.
