What is a "victoria"?
A victoria is a type of carriage with a low, elegant design, typically used in the 19th and early 20th centuries. It has two wheels and can usually seat two passengers, facing forward. The driver sits at the front, and the vehicle is often drawn by one or two horses. The victoria is known for its graceful, open structure, often featuring a folding top to provide shade or protection from the weather. It was a popular choice for leisurely drives or as a formal mode of transport, especially in urban areas.
