The Devonport Mail, Assisted by Six Fresh Post-Horses, Crossing the Downs Near Amesbury, Leaving Their Own Jaded Cattle Behind. Scenes During the Snow Storm December 1836. Plate 2.
Drawn by J. Pollard. on Stone by G.B. Campion. Printed by J. Graf.
London, Published February 1st 1837, by Ackermann & C.º 96 Strand.
Lithograph with hand colour. Sheet 305 x 440mm (12 x 17¼"). Nicks in edges.
A fully laden Royal Mail coach struggling through a snow drift with new horses, leaving the previous six to be recovered from deep snow. One of a scarce set of four winter coaching scenes, the others being: "The Liverpool Mail in a Snow-Drift"; "The Birmingham Mail Fast in the Snow"; and ''Louth Mail Stop by the Snow''. The winter of 1836 was particularly long and harsh, lasting from October to April 1837. A snowstorm across southern England began on Christmas Eve, mixed with high winds. A built-up of snow on the South Downs caused an avalanche to crash onto Lewes in Sussex on the 27th December, killing eight people.
