Introduction This oil painting by Robert Polhill Bevan shows two hansom cabs, one with a horse in harness, standing in a cobbled yard. The dark mottled blue of the cabs contrasts with the light mottled yellow of the far wall. Two men in overcoats, a ladder and a gutter can be seen as well. Bevan lived in London in 1900 and was a founder member of the Camden Town Group in 1911. His paintings often depicted street scenes, cab yards and horse sales.
