EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing photograph captures the eccentric antics of John Mytton, a wealthy Englishman from the early 19th century, as he attempts to drive his carriage over a tollgate in defiance of the toll-keeper. Mytton, known for his reckless and unconventional behavior, is depicted here with a determined expression on his face as he urges his horse forward, the tollgate looming ominously in the foreground. The toll-keeper, dressed in a traditional uniform, looks on in disbelief and annoyance, no doubt wondering how he will collect the toll from this obstinate and wealthy passenger. The scene is set in the 1790s or 1830s, a time when such displays of defiance would have caused quite a stir. Mytton's passengers, if he had any, are not visible in the photograph, but their doubtless anxious expressions can be imagined as they cling to the sides of the carriage, bracing themselves for the impending impact with the tollgate. The horse, sensing the tension in the air, tenses its muscles and prepares for the collision. Despite the potential for an accident, Mytton seems undeterred, brandishing his whip with a sense of daring and defiance. The photograph captures a moment of tension and conflict between the individual's desire for freedom and the societal norms and expectations of the time. It is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the character and personality of a man who was not afraid to challenge the status quo, no matter the cost.
