EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of a Hackney carriage, or droshky, making its way through the snowy streets of Russia around the turn of the 20th century. The horse-drawn vehicle, adorned with intricate wooden details and a vibrant, red color, was a common sight in Russian cities during this era. The driver, bundled up against the cold weather, holds the reins firmly as he navigates the icy roads. The scene is set against a backdrop of snow-covered buildings and trees, adding to the wintery atmosphere. The Hackney carriage, also known as a droshky, was a popular mode of transportation for both locals and tourists in Russia during this time. Its distinctive design and charm continue to captivate us today, making this photograph a fascinating glimpse into the past. This image, captured around 1890, is a reminder of the simple pleasures and beauty of a bygone era. The horse's breath visible in the crisp air, the crunch of the horse's hooves on the frozen ground, and the rustic charm of the carriage all combine to transport us to a time when life moved at a slower pace. This photograph, with its rich history and timeless appeal, is a must-have for anyone with an interest in history, horses, or the beauty of the past.
