EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, taken by Otto Herschan on the 10th of August 1878, transports us back in time to witness a bustling scene outside the Royal Clarence Hotel in Exeter, England. The image showcases a crowded coach ready to embark on its journey, with passengers eagerly boarding while horses patiently await their command. The composition captures the essence of Victorian-era transportation as we see this magnificent horse-drawn vehicle dominating the frame. Its grandeur is accentuated by the surrounding architecture and cobblestone road that add an authentic touch to this historical moment frozen in time. As we delve deeper into the image, it becomes apparent that this coach was not just a means of transport but also a social hub. Passengers from different walks of life gather together - some elegantly dressed individuals conversing animatedly while others appear lost in their own thoughts or engaged in quiet conversations with fellow travelers. Otto Herschan's masterful use of photography further enhances the nostalgic atmosphere evoked by this print. Every detail is meticulously captured, from intricate patterns on clothing to expressions etched upon faces weathered by time. This remarkable piece serves as a window into an era long gone but forever preserved through art. It invites us to imagine ourselves amidst those passengers who embarked on countless journeys filled with anticipation and adventure. A true testament to history's enduring allure and our fascination with capturing moments that transcend time itself.
