EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a bustling scene in the yard of the Swan with Two Necks, as Royal Mail Coaches prepare to embark on their journey to the West of England. Created by James Pollard in 1831, this colored engraving showcases the vibrant energy and excitement surrounding these iconic coaches. The image is filled with a myriad of details that transport us back to 19th century England. The luggage piled high on top of each coach hints at the anticipation and adventure that awaits its passengers. A diverse group of people can be seen eagerly awaiting departure, adding to the sense of community and shared experience. The magnificent horses hitched up to each coach are not just any ordinary animals; they are racehorses, exuding power and grace. These majestic creatures were chosen for their speed and endurance, ensuring swift delivery across long distances. The old building in the background adds a touch of nostalgia, reminding us of an era when travel was slower-paced yet full of charm. The fashionably dressed coachmen add another layer of authenticity to this snapshot from history. James Pollard's skillful engraving technique brings every detail to life - from the vibrant colors adorning each carriage to the animated crowd gathered around them. This artwork truly captures both the beauty and functionality inherent in these Royal Mail Coaches. Bridgeman Images has preserved this piece as part of their collection, allowing us all to appreciate this historical moment in transportation history through art.
