Gordon Cameron | The Bus Stop and the Monkey Puzzle, Oil Painting, 1976

This painting contains just a single moment, 

There is no way of knowing how long these people waited for the bus, where their final destinations were—or even what this scene will look like tomorrow. 

Once we have passed by, we will not find this bus stop again. But in this moment, there is an understanding that these people are alive in this world just the same as us. 

And they are going somewhere.
