EDITORS COMMENTS
The Horse Ferry, Millbank" by John Varley is a captivating watercolor print that transports us back in time to the bustling city of London. This exquisite artwork captures the essence of 19th-century transportation as we witness a horse-drawn ferry crossing the mighty Thames River. The scene is alive with activity as passengers eagerly await their turn to board the boat. The artist's meticulous attention to detail brings every element to life - from the majestic horses pulling the ferry, their muscles straining against the current, to the animated conversations between passengers on both sides of this vital river crossing. Varley masterfully portrays not only a means of transport but also an important social hub where people from all walks of life converge. The backdrop showcases London's iconic embankment, with its grand architecture and bustling streets adding depth and character to this vibrant composition. This remarkable print offers viewers a glimpse into an era when horse-drawn ferries were an integral part of daily life in London. It serves as a reminder of how transportation has evolved over time and invites us to appreciate our modern conveniences while cherishing moments frozen in art like this one.
