EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the vibrant streets of Modern-day Paris, where the spirit of the past intertwines with the pulse of the present. In this image, a female coach driver expertly maneuvers her horse-drawn carriage through the bustling cityscape. Dressed in a smart, tailored outfit, she exudes confidence and competence, her determined gaze fixed on the winding streets ahead. The year is 1907, and Paris is a city in transition. Horse-drawn carriages, a relic of an earlier era, continue to ply the streets, but the advent of motorized vehicles is just around the corner. Amidst this backdrop of change, the role of the female coach driver assumes new significance. Lady cab drivers were a common sight in Paris during the early 1900s. They were seen by paying customers as a far safer bet than their male counterparts, who were known for their erratic driving and sometimes violent behavior. The reputation of female drivers as more reliable and trustworthy was well-deserved, and they reaped the financial reward accordingly. Some male drivers even went so far as to dress up as women to gain more business! As the sun sets over the City of Light, the female coach driver continues her journey, her horse's hooves clattering against the cobblestones. With her, no danger of getting lost – she always knows how to find herself in the right places. This evocative image offers a glimpse into a bygone era, a time when women defied convention and made their mark on the world, one carriage ride at a time.
