About this work
A hand-colored print shows horse-drawn mail coaches stranded in deep snow on a winter road, with horses struggling and drivers and passengers wading through the drifts. The black coaches bear painted monograms and star emblems, and a wagon with a canvas cover appears in the middle distance. The work is titled The Holyhead and Chester Mails at Hockley Hill near Dunstable, drawn by Henry Thomas Alken, ca. 1837.
