This classic 18th century scene was inspired by the old folk song of the same title, and depicts a Dick Turpin-esque highwayman robbing a stagecoach.
Originally a two-color letterpress print made on a 1940s Vandercook No. 4 press in 2015, this version is a digital recreation enlarged to a 16"x20” poster. Rusty red and warm grey inks on white matte paper give the image a sepia, old-fashioned feel. Signed and numbered by the artist.
"I drew forth my pistol
And I rattled my saber,
Saying 'Stand and deliver,
Or may the Devil take you.'"
