EDITORS COMMENTS
The late Mr Edwin Fownes (b/w photo) captures a timeless moment in history, frozen by the lens of an English Photographer from the 19th century. This intriguing print, now part of a private collection, showcases the enigmatic figure of Mr Edwin Fownes. A man shrouded in mystery, his identity is forever preserved within this image. The photograph depicts Mr Edwin Fownes as a coachman, proudly donning his uniform with impeccable precision. His stern expression speaks volumes about his dedication to his craft and the pride he took in serving others during that era. The attention to detail captured by the photographer is remarkable; every crease on his coat and every strand of hair meticulously rendered. Originally published as an illustration for The Illustrated London News on July 16th, 1898, this photograph offers us a glimpse into a bygone era when horse-drawn carriages were still prevalent on city streets. It evokes nostalgia for simpler times and invites us to reflect upon our own fast-paced modern lives. As we gaze at this portrait today, we are reminded of the power of photography to transcend time and connect us with individuals long gone but not forgotten. Through this print's inclusion in Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, it becomes more than just an image; it becomes a window into history itself.
