EDITORS COMMENTS
This painting, circa 1918, showcases the iconic Hansom Cab from the past, with its distinctive horse-drawn design. The Hansom Cab, patented by Joseph Hansom in 1834, was a significant innovation in transportation history. In this image, we see the back view of the carriage, with its colourful and intricately detailed bodywork. Two men are standing to each side, one of whom is the driver, expertly guiding the horse with reins in hand. The other man appears to be helping or waiting for a fare. The scene exudes an air of elegance and sophistication, transporting us back in time to an era of horse-drawn carriages and leisurely strolls. This evocative image is taken from the July volume of a popular magazine, published by Robert Polhill Bevan, and is part of the extensive March of the Women Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online.
