EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the bustling streets of Rotterdam in 1898. The artist, James Batkin, skillfully captures a horse-drawn tram as it gracefully glides along the cobbled road. This nostalgic image showcases the charm and elegance of transportation in the 19th century. The horse-drawn vehicle stands proudly amidst a picturesque Dutch countryside backdrop, with its majestic horses leading the way. The tramlines embedded into the street symbolize progress and modernity during this era. It is fascinating to witness how public transport has evolved over time. Batkin's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this photograph; from the intricate harnesses adorning each horse to the worn-out cobblestones beneath their hooves. The monochrome palette adds depth and character, emphasizing both light and shadow throughout. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported not only through space but also through time. We can almost hear the clatter of hooves against stone as we imagine ourselves strolling down that very lane in Zuid Holland. James Batkin's work serves as a testament to his talent for capturing moments frozen in history. Through his lens, he allows us a glimpse into an era long gone yet forever cherished within these exquisite prints.
