Moving Britain, Taxis & Buses by Paul Duddell, Whispers & Strokes - Artist, Painter, and Photographer
TITLE:
"Country Fare"

DESCRIPTION:
A classic black cab, its form instantly recognisable, sits proudly against the backdrop of golden hedgerows and wide blue skies. Far from its usual urban hustle, it rests in rural stillness — a striking juxtaposition of city spirit and pastoral calm.

Illustrated With Soul:
The glow of the afternoon sun kisses the taxi's polished bonnet, turning it from a symbol of motion into one of pause and presence. It’s a scene about duality: movement and stillness, tradition and nature, grit and grace. The way the trees reach upward in contrast to the grounded vehicle speaks to balance — the pulse of Britain, steady in every setting.

WHY IT’S SPECIAL:
This is more than a vehicle — it’s a national icon, recontextualised. Seeing the cab away from its usual cityscape draws us in with curiosity, even nostalgia. It feels cinematic, as if a story just ended or is about to begin. For collectors and lovers of British life, this piece delivers a fresh take on a beloved symbol — making it a conversation starter and a visual poem rolled into one.
