"Fores's Coaching Recollections" is a series of 19th-century paintings by the British artist Charles Cooper Henderson (1803–1877) that capture the vibrant and dynamic scenes of stagecoach travel during its heyday in England. Henderson, known for his keen interest in horses and the coaching industry, created these works to illustrate the energy and excitement of this mode of transportation before the advent of the railways, which would eventually lead to the decline of the stagecoach era.

The series was published by Messrs. Fores of Piccadilly, a company renowned for producing and distributing prints related to sporting and coaching scenes. The paintings were subsequently reproduced as hand-colored aquatints, a form of printmaking that allowed for rich, painterly effects, making them popular collectibles among the Victorian public. Henderson's attention to detail, from the horses' muscular forms to the varied expressions of the passengers and coachmen, combined with his use of vivid colors and dynamic compositions, brought these everyday scenes to life with a sense of immediacy and drama.

"Fores's Coaching Recollections" not only serves as an artistic representation of a bygone era but also provides historical insight into the social and economic aspects of early 19th-century England. The series is considered an important contribution to the genre of coaching art and remains of interest to collectors, historians, and enthusiasts of equine and transport history. Henderson's works are characterized by their historical accuracy and are valued for their contribution to the visual documentation of the coaching age, offering a window into the past and celebrating the legacy of stagecoach travel in British history.
