EDITORS COMMENTS
This color print captures a dramatic scene from 1837, as a four-horse coach with passengers on top confidently drives past two other carriages stuck in the snow. The Bruce, full of determined travelers, is passing the Peveril and Manchester mail coaches with ease, showcasing the power and speed of this impressive mode of transportation.
The detailed engraving by R. Havell brings to life an illustration by Henry Alken, originally featured in Ralph Nevill's Old Sporting Prints in The Connoisseur Magazine in London back in 1908. This historical image not only depicts a moment of excitement and adventure but also highlights the challenges faced by travelers during harsh winter conditions.
As we gaze at this print, we can almost hear the sounds of hooves pounding against the icy ground and feel the chill of the snowy landscape surrounding these stranded carriages. It serves as a reminder of both the beauty and unpredictability of travel in the 19th century.
Whether you're drawn to this image for its historical significance or simply appreciate its artistic value, it undoubtedly offers a glimpse into a bygone era filled with daring journeys and unexpected obstacles.
