EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "London by Train" takes us back in time to the golden era of British Railways. Created between 1923 and 1947, this iconic poster from the British Railways (Eastern Region) showcases a stunning artwork by J Navarro. The image transports us to the heart of bustling London, where history and modernity seamlessly intertwine. In this picturesque scene, we are greeted with a mesmerizing view of Horse Guards Parade. A troop of immaculately dressed Life Guards soldiers on horseback proudly stand before their regal surroundings. Their striking red tunics and gleaming helmets create an awe-inspiring spectacle against the backdrop of historic landmarks such as Eros at Piccadilly Circus. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable; every stroke captures the essence of London's vibrant atmosphere during that era. This print not only serves as a visual delight but also evokes a sense of nostalgia for those who remember or long for simpler times when train travel was synonymous with adventure and discovery. Preserved within the National Railway Museum's Pictorial Collection, this timeless piece offers a glimpse into Britain's rich railway heritage. It reminds us how art played an integral role in promoting tourism and showcasing destinations accessible through rail travel. Whether you're an avid collector or simply appreciate historical masterpieces, this exquisite print encapsulates both the charm of vintage advertising and the allure of exploring London through its intricate railway network.
