EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that captures the essence of 19th-century coaching and horse racing. The image, created by Thomas Sutherland and James Pollard, takes us back to a bustling scene outside The Peacock Inn in Islington, London. In this vibrant color print from "Famous Sporting Prints IV: Coaching" we witness the energy and competition surrounding road transport during this era. A magnificent stagecoach drawn by powerful horses races along the streets as spectators cheer on their favorite teams. The coachman skillfully guides his team through the crowded thoroughfare with determination and precision. The architectural beauty of The Peacock Inn stands proudly in the background, its walls echoing with stories of travelers who have passed through its doors over time. This historic pub served as a gathering place for both locals and visitors alike. The image not only showcases an exciting race but also highlights the important role that horses played in transportation during this period. It pays homage to those who dedicated their lives to professions such as coaching and emphasizes how these occupations were intertwined with sporting events. With its vivid colors and attention to detail, this print transports us back to a time when horse-drawn vehicles ruled the roads.
