At one time, especially between 1815 and 1915, the horse and buggy was the primary mode of short-distance transportation in America.
Horsemanship was largely confined to wealthy landowners, western pioneers, and the military.
But as long as there were rudimentary roadways, the low skill requirement of horse and buggy gave freedom of mobility to thousands more.
Until Henry Ford made automobiles affordable for the working class, horse-drawn buggies were the most common means of getting around towns and surrounding countryside.
Edward Lamson Henry (January 12, 1841 – May 9, 1919), commonly known as E.L. Henry, was an American genre painter, born in Charleston, South Carolina. Henry studied at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. He moved to Paris at the age of 19 — a time of Claude Monet, Pierre-August Renoir, and Alfred Sisley.
His great attention to detail and membership of the New York Historical Society won him admiration from contemporaries who viewed his work as authentic historical reconstructions.
Who better to show us American life in the time of the horse and buggy than Edward Lamson Henry.
