Cart Caterers Catering Early Food Horse Horsedrawn Industry Alfieri Europeana
EDITORS COMMENTS
This monochrome photo print, taken by Alfieri on 31 March 1920, showcases a glimpse into the early days of the food industry. The image captures a horse-drawn cart belonging to the renowned Aerated Bread Company (ABC), an iconic catering establishment of its time. The company's dedication to delivering quality bread and pastries is evident as we see the cart loaded with delectable treats. The scene exudes a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era when such carts were a common sight on bustling European streets. The black and white tones add depth and character to this snapshot from the 1920s, transporting us back in time. Alfieri's skillful composition draws our attention not only to the horse-drawn cart but also to the surrounding architecture, providing context for this historical moment. It serves as a reminder that even in those early years, businesses like ABC played an integral role in shaping urban landscapes. While we are left curious about how this photograph was used commercially or what specific purpose it served for ABC, let us appreciate it purely as an artistic representation of an important chapter in culinary history. This remarkable image invites us to reflect upon how far we have come since then while cherishing these glimpses into our collective past.
