Always the Way
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a charming and humorous cartoon by renowned British artist Bert Thomas, created in 1909. This print depicts a scene from Edwardian London, where two hansom cab drivers are shown arguing over who has the right of way at a busy intersection. The horses, seemingly tired of the endless bickering, exchange a knowing glance, as if to suggest that they have seen it all before. The cartoon captures the essence of the era, with its horse-drawn cabs, elegant carriages, and the chaotic energy of London's bustling streets. The cabbies, dressed in their traditional uniforms, are portrayed with a sense of humor and exaggeration, adding to the lighthearted tone of the image. The title "Always the Way" suggests a sense of predictability and routine, as if this scene of cabbies arguing over the right of way was a common occurrence in Edwardian London. The print offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when horse-drawn transportation ruled the streets and everyday life was filled with a unique charm and character. Bert Thomas was a prolific cartoonist and illustrator, known for his witty and observant depictions of everyday life. "Always the Way" is a prime example of his talent, showcasing his ability to capture the humor and quirks of the world around him. This print is not only a fascinating historical artifact, but also a delightful work of art that continues to amuse and entertain viewers to this day.
