A Rare Large Folio Pair of English Coaching Paintings

Each painting having the unusual scene of two large detailed coaches. One with Norwich-Cambridge coach plus Norwich-London Royal coach with hunt coach behind. The other having Norwich-London Royal coach with one other coach and Hunt coach arriving at way station / pub. Both signed lower left "J.C. Maggs - 1880, Bath". Re-framed and relined in early 1930, by D. B. Butler & Co., 126 E. 57th St. NYC

This pair of exceptionally detailed paintings by famed coaching artist J. C. Maggs (who lived on Gay Street, Bath , England) are most unusual because of their large size. Maggs seldom put two coaches in one painting- that is why the larger than normal size.

Maggs was a master of this genre and widely patronized including
                 Queen Victoria who bought his work.

John Charles Maggs 1819-1882
