EDITORS COMMENTS
The Liverpool Mail Near St. Albans, c19th century" is a captivating print that takes us back in time to the era of horse-drawn transportation and the challenges faced by travelers in adverse weather conditions. The image, created by renowned artists Robert Havell and Henry Thomas Alken, captures a moment of struggle and perseverance. Set against a snowy landscape in Hertfordshire, England, we witness a horse-drawn stagecoach stuck deep in a snowdrift. The scene portrays an allegorical metaphor for adversity as it showcases the resilience of both man and beast facing nature's fury. In this male-dominated world, it is intriguing to note the presence of women amidst this chaotic situation. A lady stands near the stranded coach, embodying the concept of "damsel in distress" while other female figures can be seen observing from afar. Their inclusion adds depth to this historical narrative. The vibrant colors used in this engraving bring life to every detail - from the horses straining against their harnesses to the determination etched on each face battling against all odds. This 19th-century masterpiece was featured in "Connoisseur Extra No. 5 - Old Sporting Prints" published by Ralph Nevill within The Connoisseur Magazine. "The Liverpool Mail Near St. Albans" serves not only as an artistic representation but also as a window into our past; reminding us of how far we have come with advancements in transport and technology since those challenging times.
