EDITORS COMMENTS
This watercolour print, titled "The Dover Express, 1832," is a stunning creation by the 19th-century British artist Charles B. Newhouse, held in the esteemed collection of the Art Institute of Chicago. Newhouse masterfully captured the essence of England's rural landscape and the daily life of its people in this vibrant and intricately detailed work. The scene depicts a horse-drawn stagecoach, the Dover Express, making its way through a picturesque English countryside. The stagecoach, adorned with the insignia of the Dover Express Company, is pulled by a team of powerful horses, their muscles taut and veins bulging as they strain against their harnesses. The passengers inside, both male and female, gaze out at the passing scenery with a sense of wonder and anticipation. Surrounding the stagecoach, a diverse group of people and animals go about their daily business. A man leads a horse and cart along the winding road, while another man and woman walk hand in hand, their clothing and accessories indicating their affluence. A group of children play nearby, their laughter and energy adding to the lively atmosphere. Newhouse's use of watercolour heightened with white gouache and selectively varnished on gray wove paper adds depth and texture to the image, bringing the scene to life in a way that transcends time. The rich colours and intricate details transport us back to a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the heritage and history of England during the 19th century.
