EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of a London Hansom Cab from the Victorian period, as captured in a vintage lantern slide from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online. The Hansom Cab, a type of horse-drawn carriage, was a common sight on the streets of London during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This particular cab is adorned with intricate details, from its ornate metalwork to the elegant lines of its body. The horses, harnessed and ready to go, add to the scene's sense of energy and movement. The Victorian era, known for its grandeur and opulence, is brought to life in this photograph. The cobblestone streets, gas lamps, and traditional attire of the passengers and driver all contribute to the authenticity of the scene. The use of a lantern slide, a popular method of projecting images during the late 1800s and early 1900s, adds an extra layer of historical significance to the image. This photograph is a reminder of a time when transportation was a more leisurely affair, and the simple pleasure of a ride in a Hansom Cab was a luxury. The magic of the past is captured in this image, inviting us to imagine the sights, sounds, and sensations of London during the Victorian era.
