Vehicle, seen from behind, can be seen the seat, from which hangs the coachman's cover who is sitting in profile, le pedane per la salita, the large rear wheels, the posterior and lateral lanterns, the whip in its holder and a metal support e un sostegno in metallo lavorato per le briglie. Nello sfondo si intravedono alcuni uomini che camminano e un'ampia strada frequentata da macchine e fiancheggiata da alti palazzi

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing the elegance and charm of an English 'Cab' carriage. The image focuses on a coachman seated on the box, his profile visible as he confidently holds the reins. Behind him, we see the intricate details of this magnificent vehicle - from the seat with its hanging cover to the sturdy footboards for easy access. The large rear wheels stand tall, while posterior and lateral lanterns add a touch of sophistication. The whip rests securely in its holder, ready to be used when needed. A beautifully crafted metal support can also be seen, designed specifically for holding the bridles in place. In the background, glimpses of pedestrians walking by and a bustling street filled with cars can be observed. Tall buildings flank this wide road, providing a glimpse into city life during this era. Dating back to around 1950-1960, this print from Alinari transports us back to an enchanting time when horse-drawn carriages were still prevalent amidst modernization. It evokes nostalgia for simpler times when transportation was more leisurely and elegant. With exquisite attention to detail and composition, this photograph not only captures a specific moment but also serves as a window into history - reminding us of how much has changed over time while preserving memories that continue to fascinate us today.
