EDITORS COMMENTS
The Opposition Coaches, 1837 (1927) captures the vibrant spirit of 19th-century coaching in all its glory. This print by Charles Cooper Henderson takes us back to a time when horse-drawn coaches ruled the roads and transported people across the countryside with elegance and speed. In this scene, we witness a thrilling competition between rival coachmen as they race along a country road. The dust kicks up behind them, adding an air of excitement to the already intense atmosphere. The magnificent horses strain against their harnesses, showcasing their power and determination. Henderson's use of color brings this historical moment to life. The rich hues highlight every detail - from the vibrant reds and blues of the coaches to the earthy tones of the surrounding landscape. It is evident that he has meticulously captured not only the physical aspects but also the essence of this exhilarating sport. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time, imagining ourselves on that very road witnessing these skilled professionals at work. We can almost feel our hearts racing alongside those majestic horses as they thunder down the lane towards victory. 'The Opposition Coaches' serves as a testament to both Henderson's artistic talent and his passion for preserving sporting history through his prints. It reminds us of an era long gone but still celebrated for its beauty, skill, and unyielding competitive spirit.
