EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "The Liverpool Mail Near St Albans, 19th century" transports us back in time to a wintry scene filled with both beauty and difficulty. The image captures the essence of England's countryside during the 19th century, where snow-covered landscapes were not only picturesque but also posed challenges for transportation. In this enchanting winter setting, we see a stagecoach from The Liverpool Mail trapped on a deep and treacherous road. The horses strain against the weight of the coach as they struggle through the heavy snowfall. A lady stands nearby, her expression reflecting concern and perhaps even a touch of distress. This photograph serves as a metaphor for life's obstacles - sometimes unexpected circumstances can leave us feeling stuck or trapped. It reminds us that even in times of difficulty, there is always hope for rescue or assistance. The artist behind this remarkable piece is Robert Havell, who skillfully captured every detail with his engraving technique. Inspired by Henry Thomas Alken's original work, Havell beautifully portrays the harshness of winter while highlighting the resilience of both humans and animals alike. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing print from The Connoisseur Vol. XX published in London in 1908 by Otto Limited, we are reminded of how weather conditions have shaped our history and influenced our modes of transport throughout centuries past.
