EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning model of a forty-seat omnibus, crafted from painted wood. Created by the French School in the 19th century, this intricate piece is now housed at the Musee de la Ville de Paris, Musee Carnavalet in Paris, France. The model perfectly captures the essence of public transport used in Paris around 1878. With its covered carriage and elegant design, it exudes both functionality and charm. The attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this miniature masterpiece. The omnibus car featured here was an essential mode of transportation during its time, providing seating for up to forty passengers. Its significance lies not only in its practicality but also as a symbol of progress and urban development. Through this photograph, we are transported back to a bygone era when horse-drawn buses like these were a common sight on the bustling streets of Paris. It serves as a reminder that even centuries ago, cities were constantly evolving and adapting to meet the needs of their inhabitants. Bridgeman Images has expertly captured this historical artifact with precision and clarity. This image allows us to appreciate not only the craftsmanship behind such models but also offers insight into our shared history and how modes of transportation have evolved over time.
