EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the 1920s with this print by artist Bill Brunell. Captured in Buckinghamshire, England, the image showcases a Thorneycroft double-decker bus amidst a picturesque countryside setting. The vintage charm of this era is further highlighted by an unidentified car from 1923 parked on the left side of the frame. The monochrome composition adds a timeless quality to the scene, emphasizing every intricate detail - from the elegant architecture of surrounding buildings to the majestic horses pulling a horse-drawn carriage nearby. This snapshot perfectly encapsulates rural life during that period and offers a glimpse into how people used public transport for their daily travels. As we observe passengers boarding and disembarking from the Thorneycroft bus, it becomes evident that this mode of transportation played an essential role in connecting communities within Amersham and beyond. The bustling street serves as a reminder of simpler times when roads were not congested with modern vehicles but instead provided ample space for both pedestrians and motorists alike. This remarkable print is not only an ode to British history but also celebrates our enduring fascination with classic cars and traditional modes of travel. It invites us to imagine ourselves as part of this vibrant scene, experiencing firsthand what it was like to be a traveller in those roaring twenties.
