About the piece
Created in 1834 by the renowned British artist James Pollard, this work captures a lively moment outside the Pike and Anchor Inn at Ponders End. The painting offers a window into the era of coaching and rural life, rendered with Pollard's characteristic attention to architectural detail, period fashion, and equine subjects. The soft light and atmospheric sky create a grounded, nostalgic feel.
