EDITORS COMMENTS
This 1851 engraving titled "Singular Accident in Hunter Street, Brunswick Square, London, UK" takes us back to the bustling streets of Victorian-era London. The scene depicts a dramatic incident involving a Hansom cab and a startled horse. As the cab was making its way through Judd Street, the horse suddenly became frightened by a nearby monster organ and bolted at an alarming speed. In an unfortunate turn of events, as the horse reached the last house on the left-hand side of Hunter Street, it veered onto the pavement with such force that it toppled over iron railings and fell into an area below. The weighty cab came crashing down upon him. This engraved image not only captures this singular accident but also serves as a window into history. It showcases the illustrative technique popular during that time period and exemplifies 19th-century style artistry. With its vintage charm and retro appeal, this piece from Liszt Collection transports us to another era. As we gaze upon this historic artwork, we are reminded of how accidents can occur unexpectedly even in seemingly ordinary moments. It is through these glimpses into our past that we gain insight into both cultural practices and artistic expression prevalent during those times.
