EDITORS COMMENTS
A Cheap Ride, c1905, (1912) captures a bustling scene in early 20th century Egypt. This print by artist Walter Frederick Roofe Tyndale takes us back to a time when transportation was simpler and more reliant on animal power. The image showcases an Egyptian street filled with people of all walks of life, both men and women, going about their daily activities. In the foreground, we see a woman seated comfortably in a cart pulled by two sturdy oxen. She appears to be enjoying her ride through the sunlit country lane while engaging in conversation with a male passenger beside her. The vibrant colors and meticulous watercolor technique used by Tyndale bring this snapshot of everyday life to life. The print not only highlights the importance of road transport during that era but also offers insights into various professions and occupations present at the time. Street sellers can be seen peddling their wares while bystanders observe the scene curiously. This artwork is part of Tyndale's larger collection titled 'An Artist in Egypt, ' which provides glimpses into different aspects of Egyptian culture. Tyndale's work beautifully combines artistry with documentation as he captures both the beauty of his surroundings and the realities faced by ordinary Egyptians at that time. A true gem from history, this print serves as a reminder of how far transportation has come while celebrating the rich heritage and diverse lives lived within these ancient streets.
