EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "A Mail in Deep Snow" transports us to a bygone era, where the harsh winter conditions create an enchanting scene. Engraved by George Hunt and brought to life through colour lithography, this artwork captures the essence of a challenging journey. In this image, we witness a coach and six horses valiantly making their way through deep snowdrifts. The postman, determined to deliver his precious cargo despite the extreme conditions, wades through the snow with shovel in hand. The village lies just beyond reach as they become stranded amidst nature's icy grip. The horses huddled together for warmth while draped in blankets that barely shield them from the biting cold. Footprints mark their path, evidence of their struggle against Mother Nature's forces. One can't help but feel empathy for these brave souls who find themselves overturned and stuck in this unforgiving landscape. James Pollard skillfully depicts not only a physical journey but also an emotional one. This artwork serves as a reminder of human resilience and dedication even when faced with seemingly insurmountable challenges. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the hardships endured by those who dedicated themselves to delivering mail during treacherous winters. It is a testament to both the beauty and brutality of English landscapes during winter months - an enduring symbol of perseverance against all odds.
