EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and detailed colour lithograph captures a significant moment in British history - the arrival of "The Liverpool mail, near St Albans" on Tuesday, 27 December 1836. The image showcases the iconic coach, with James Burdett as the guard, making its way through picturesque countryside. The print is an illustration from Captain Mallet's renowned book "Annals of the Road, or Notes on Mail and Stage Coaching in Great Britain" published by Longmans Green in 1876. It offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of mail and stage coaching during this era. The composition exudes a sense of excitement and adventure as it depicts one of England's most vital transportation systems at work. The Liverpool mail was crucial for connecting different parts of the country efficiently. This artwork serves as a testament to both technological advancements and cultural heritage. As we admire this piece, we are transported back to a time when coaches were not only means of travel but also symbols of national pride. The attention to detail in capturing every aspect - from the coach itself to James Burdett standing proudly as its guard - highlights the significance placed upon these vehicles. This print allows us to appreciate not only the beauty but also the historical importance behind such modes of transport that played an integral role in shaping Great Britain's past.
