EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "The Oxford and Opposition Coaches, 1906" by artist W. Flavell, takes us back to a bustling street scene in the early 20th century. The image showcases the dynamic world of transportation during this era. Set against a cloudy sky, we see two horse-drawn coaches racing down an avenue. These magnificent animals are pulling their respective carriages with incredible speed and determination. The coaches themselves are beautifully crafted, representing the epitome of elegance and sophistication. As we delve deeper into the photograph, we notice that the road is filled with people going about their daily lives. Men dressed in formal attire can be seen both inside and outside the coaches, enjoying this exhilarating mode of transport. The dust kicked up by the horses' hooves adds a sense of movement to the scene while also reminding us of the challenges faced by travelers on these unpaved roads. "The Oxford and Opposition Coaches" captures not only a moment frozen in time but also serves as a metaphor for progress and competition within society. It symbolizes how advancements in transportation were shaping urban life during this period. This remarkable piece from The Connoisseur magazine allows us to immerse ourselves in history while appreciating both its artistic value and historical significance.
