EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "The Exeter Royal Mail on a country road" we are transported back in time to witness the elegance and efficiency of 19th-century travel. The image, captured by renowned artist James Pollard (1792-1867), showcases the iconic Exeter Royal Mail coach gracefully navigating a picturesque countryside route. As our eyes wander across the scene, we are immediately drawn to the magnificent horses that powerfully pull this majestic vehicle. Their sleek coats glisten under the warm sunlight, their muscles flexing with each step as they effortlessly carry both passengers and mail alike. The coach itself exudes an air of sophistication, its polished exterior reflecting the surrounding landscape. A top-hatted driver skillfully guides his team through winding roads, displaying remarkable control over these spirited animals. One can only imagine the rhythmic sound of hooves hitting against gravel as this symbol of reliable transportation glides along its designated path. This artwork not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to human ingenuity and progress in developing efficient modes of transport during an era when speed was paramount. It reminds us of how far we have come while evoking nostalgia for simpler times when horse-drawn coaches were at the forefront of long-distance travel. "The Exeter Royal Mail on a country road" is more than just an exquisite piece from Bridgeman Images' collection; it is an invitation to embark on a visual journey into history – one where beauty meets functionality and where tradition intertwines
