This rainy London art print features a true classic - the red routemaster bus. This is the style that's still recognizable to so many. And you'll still find some of them in private use but the last of the heritage routes that used these vintage buses was shuttered in recent years. I feel fortunate to have gotten to ride one of them on one of my trips to London some years back. It had been a long-standing dream. When I was quite small, my uncle and aunt spent a summer in Europe including, predictably, some time in London. When we visited their home, I always wanted to play with the souvenir routemaster toy bus my uncle had gotten. Having been around small children since, I know how nice he was being letting me handle it at all! I probably also saw pictures of them in the slides from their trip but it was the little toy that made the biggest impression on me. Of course, there are still modern double decker buses in London and the latest ones are a modern nod to the routemaster but nothing beats the real thing!
This artwork depicts a classic routemaster bus in service on Regent Street, a landmark shopping district in London's West End. The city lights and the rainy streets very much remind me of my visits to London. Even on my shortest trip there, a long weekend, it rained, so it's hard for me to imagine London without sloshing around a bit.
Does this routemaster bus artwork remind you of time in London? Perhaps you've visited or call London home? I hope you'll take a moment to share what caught your attention in this rainy London art print.
