EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Stand and Deliver, highwayman holds up stagecoach in the early 19th century" takes us back to a time of daring exploits and lawlessness on the open roads. Created by Henry A. Payne, this print captures the essence of an era when bandits roamed freely, preying upon unsuspecting travellers. In this scene, we witness a lone highwayman standing boldly in front of a stagecoach filled with frightened passengers. With his face concealed beneath a wide-brimmed hat and cloak billowing in the wind, he exudes an air of mystery and danger. The tension is palpable as he demands that all inside surrender their valuables without hesitation. The landscape surrounding them adds to the drama unfolding before our eyes. Rolling hills stretch into the distance while majestic horses graze nearby, seemingly oblivious to the criminal act taking place just meters away. This juxtaposition between nature's tranquility and man's treachery serves as a reminder that danger can lurk even in the most idyllic settings. Through intricate engraving techniques, Payne skillfully brings this historical moment to life. Every line etched onto paper tells a story of desperation, survival instincts, and perhaps even fleeting moments of heroism among those held captive within the stagecoach. "Stand and Deliver" transports us back to an era where justice was often elusive on these dusty highways. It invites us to contemplate both sides of humanity – those who sought fortune through crime and those whose lives
