EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the golden era of British Railways, specifically between 1948 and 1965. The poster was skillfully crafted by the talented artist Talbot Kelly, commissioned by British Railways (BR) to entice travelers to explore the picturesque county of Norfolk. The image transports us straight into the heart of Norfolk's natural beauty - the iconic Norfolk Broads. As we gaze upon this stunning artwork, our eyes are drawn towards a graceful heron majestically perched amidst a backdrop of vibrant reeds and meandering rivers. It is as if time stands still in this tranquil scene. The charm of Norfolk is further accentuated by glimpses of its diverse birdlife; bearded tits flit amongst the reeds, adding a touch of whimsy and enchantment to this idyllic landscape. This poster truly captures the essence and allure that makes Norfolk Broad such an alluring destination for nature enthusiasts and wanderers alike. Preserved within National Railway Museum's Pictorial Collection, this print serves as a testament to both artistic brilliance and historical significance. It reminds us not only of Britain's rich railway heritage but also highlights how art played an integral role in promoting travel during that era. As we admire this remarkable piece, let it transport us on a journey through time, inviting us to embark on our own adventure into the breathtaking landscapes that await in beautiful Norfolk.
