Description

The photographer captures the tour group on a carriage in a side profile view. There are five rows of seats which allow for around four people in each row. Most people look at the camera but none of them smile for the camera. There is a man on the ground which shows the scale of the carriage; the carriage is almost a man and a half tall while the horses are Percherons. The wet street shows rainy days around the time the image was taken, and trees in the background line the road.
