Description: 1 Superb British Art Antique 19th Century Oil Painting Following James Pollard was a horse-drawn Royal Mail carriage coach. Interest in royal mail collecting! An historic Royal Mail carriage coach is being pushed by four magnificent, prestigious horses along a country road in the foreground of this fascinating photograph. The coachman, who is driving and is wearing a beautiful red jacket, is holding the reins in one hand. He is holding a whip in his other hand. He has a boy sitting to his left. Passengers wearing hats are behind the neatly dressed significant lady and gentlemen. A woman in a lovely pink and white dress is inside the carriage, gesturing with her hand outstretched and lowered in the direction of the little figurines who are standing by the side of the road. Another man in red uniform is at the back, blowing a horn bugle. A dog is rushing along at the bottom, and a dust cloud is rising from the dirt road. Views of the countryside with rolling hills and a sizable stately home on the hill to the far right can be seen in the backdrop, along with birds flying overhead and distant deer. The carriage has the name and crest of the Royal Mail.
