Waiting for the Stage

Waiting for the Stage is a painting by American artist Richard Caton Woodville, depicting a scene of three men in a tavern commonly used as a waiting room for stagecoaches.

They were typically drawn by teams of horses and operated by a driver. Stagecoach travel was slow and uncomfortable, with passengers enduring bumpy roads and cramped conditions. Despite the challenges, stagecoaches played an important role in the growth of transportation and commerce during their time.
