"Horse Drawn Vehicles: A Journey Through Time and Place" Step back in time to the elegant streets of Berkeley Square, Mayfair, London, in 1813. The clip-clop of hooves on cobblestones fills the air as horse-drawn carriages glide past the grand Georgian townhouses. Fast forward to 1887, where the Church of St Martin in the Bull Ring stands proudly amidst a bustling Birmingham. Horse-drawn vehicles line up outside, transporting both people and goods through the vibrant West Midlands city. In 1926-1927 at West India Docks, London, barrels of molasses are loaded onto horse-drawn carts. The horses strain against their harnesses as they dutifully transport these precious cargo from ship to shore under Langfier Photo's watchful lens. Traveling further south to Borough High Street in 1904 reveals a scene teeming with activity. Horse-drawn vehicles and barrows navigate through throngs of pedestrians and market stalls, creating a lively atmosphere that epitomizes urban life at its busiest. Imagine yourself stepping into Mivarts Hotel on Brook Street near Grosvenor Square around 1850. Elegant carriages wait outside while guests alight gracefully before entering this prestigious establishment nestled within Westminster's heart. Venturing beyond London's boundaries brings us to Stamford Lincolnshire in 1822. "Sketches from Nature" captures picturesque scenes featuring horse-drawn vehicles meandering along quaint streets lined with charming cottages - a glimpse into rural England's timeless beauty. The year is now 1840; we find ourselves standing by Millbank in Westminster. William Parrott's brush immortalizes this moment as horse-drawn wagons traverse alongside towering buildings - an ever-changing cityscape reflecting progress and modernity during Victorian times. Transporting us even further back is King Dasaratha and His Retinue Proceeding to Rama's Wedding depicted on a folio from the Shangri.
