EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the early 19th century, where a daring highwayman holds up a stagecoach amidst the picturesque countryside. The vibrant colours of this lithograph by D. H. Parry bring life to this thrilling scene from history. With pistols in hand, the outlaw stands tall and confident, ready to confront any resistance that may come his way. The intensity of the moment is palpable as he commands attention from both the terrified travellers inside the carriage and those witnessing this audacious act. The stagecoach itself is a symbol of wealth and luxury, making it an enticing target for criminals seeking fortune on these treacherous roads. As gunshots echo through the air, chaos ensues as horses neigh and carriages screech to a halt. Intriguingly captured by Peter Newark Pictures in their private collection, this image serves as a reminder of an era when lawlessness prevailed on these highways. It encapsulates not only the dangers faced by travellers but also sheds light on society's fascination with outlaws and their audacious exploits. As we gaze upon this historic postcard-like print, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand one of many gripping encounters between highwaymen and unsuspecting victims. This artwork invites us to ponder upon themes of crime, bravery, and survival while marveling at its artistic beauty—a true testament to human ingenuity capturing moments that transcend time itself.
