EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment in history at the Morris Works, where a car's body is being spray-painted. Taken by an anonymous European photographer in the 19th century, this print showcases the early days of automobile manufacturing. The image exudes excitement and glamour as it illustrates one of the essential steps in creating these magnificent machines. The romance of motoring comes alive through this snapshot, transporting us back to a time when automobiles were still a novelty. The skilled painter meticulously applies layers of paint onto the car's body, ensuring its flawless finish. This process symbolizes not only transportation but also represents progress and innovation during that era. As we observe this historical scene, we can't help but marvel at how far technology has advanced since then. Today's modern cars have evolved significantly from their humble beginnings captured in this photograph. This remarkable piece belongs to a private collection and was later used as an illustration for "The Romance of Motoring" by T. C Bridges and H Hessell Tiltman published in 1933. It serves as a reminder of our fascination with automobiles throughout history and how they have shaped our world. Through this image, we are reminded that behind every vehicle lies countless hours of craftsmanship, dedication, and passion - all contributing to the rich tapestry of automotive history.
