As we delve into this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported to an era where horse-drawn carts were a common sight on city streets. A cart can be seen passing by, adding a touch of nostalgia to this historic scene. In the foreground, a lady elegantly walks along the avenue while a gentleman strolls nearby.
