EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "10170815 (Looe, South Cornwall, for Ideal Homes and Holidays, GWR Poster, 1930)" takes us back in time to the picturesque coastal town of Looe in South Cornwall. The image showcases a stunning view of the quaint jetty and Banjo Pier that stretch out into the glistening waters of Looe River. Originally captured by Rowles during the early 20th century, this photograph beautifully encapsulates the charm and tranquility of this idyllic seaside destination. The Great Western Railway (GWR) poster from 1930 adds a touch of nostalgia to the scene, reminding us of an era when train travel was synonymous with adventure and exploration. The composition is filled with delightful details - rowboats gently bobbing on the water's surface, boats moored along the riverbank waiting for their next voyage, and a sense of calmness that permeates throughout. It transports us to a simpler time when holidays were spent enjoying nature's beauty and immersing oneself in peaceful surroundings. As we gaze at this remarkable piece from National Railway Museum's collection, we can almost feel ourselves stepping back in time to experience Looe as it once was - a charming haven where one could escape from everyday life and embrace all that Cornwall's breathtaking countryside had to offer.
