This 18th-century constructional drawing of a coach, created by Charles Parr in 1785, showcases the intricate details and craftsmanship that went into creating these horse-drawn vehicles. The print features six overlapping portions filled with meticulous notes and annotations, providing a fascinating glimpse into the technical aspects of coach construction during this era. The vibrant colors and delicate watercolor technique used in this artwork bring to life the elegance and grandeur associated with coaches from the eighteenth century. Each wheel is meticulously depicted, highlighting their importance as essential components for smooth road transport.
