EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the golden era of railway travel. The poster, created by renowned artist Norman Wilkinson, showcases the picturesque town of Kendal nestled amidst the breathtaking landscapes of Oxenholme in the Lake District. The scene is a perfect blend of rural countryside charm and majestic hills that seem to touch the heavens. As we gaze at this artwork, we can almost feel the crisp mountain air and hear the gentle rustle of leaves in harmony with distant train whistles. Wilkinson's masterful use of color and perspective draws our attention to every detail: from quaint cottages dotting the landscape to winding country roads leading towards hidden treasures waiting to be discovered. The vibrant hues evoke a sense of tranquility and invite us on an enchanting journey through this idyllic region. This poster was originally designed as part of an advertising campaign for London Midland & Scottish Railway (LMS) during their operation between 1923-1947. It served as a visual invitation for travelers seeking respite from bustling city life, beckoning them towards Kendal's serene beauty. Today, preserved within National Railway Museum's Pictorial Collection, this print serves as a timeless reminder of an era when railways were not just modes of transportation but gateways into unexplored realms filled with natural wonders. It captures both history and artistry in one frame, allowing us to appreciate not only Wilkinson's talent but also the enduring allure that lies within Kendal and its surrounding
