EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning vintage print captures the essence of Whitley Bay in all its coastal glory. Created in 1933 by renowned artist Frank Henry Mason, this poster was commissioned by the London & North Eastern Railway (LNER) to promote rail travel to this picturesque destination in Tyne and Wear. The scene depicted is a breathtaking view of Whitley Bay's bay, with its pristine sandy shores stretching into the distance. In the foreground, two fishermen can be seen peacefully rowing their boat, adding a touch of authenticity to the composition. A majestic lighthouse stands tall in the middleground, guiding ships safely through treacherous waters. Frank Henry Mason's expertise as both an artist and engineer shines through in this artwork. Having been educated at HMS Conway and spending time at sea himself, he brings an unparalleled understanding of marine subjects to his paintings. His involvement in engineering and shipbuilding further enhances his ability to capture every intricate detail with precision. Measuring 1016 mm x 1270 mm, this large-scale print allows viewers to immerse themselves fully into the serene beauty of Whitley Bay. Whether you are an art enthusiast or simply appreciate nostalgic glimpses into our rich railway history, this piece will transport you back to a bygone era where rail travel reigned supreme.
