EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting era of 1935, when Southern Railway (SR) sought to entice travelers to Winchester, Hampshire through their mesmerizing poster. The artwork by Frederick Griffin showcases a stunning interior view of Winchester Cathedral, an architectural marvel and the longest cathedral in Europe at a staggering length of 556 feet or 170 meters. Dating back to 1079, this magnificent cathedral holds immense historical significance as it serves as the final resting place for numerous English kings. As we gaze upon the print, we are transported into its grandeur - intricate stained glass windows casting ethereal hues across the vast space, towering columns reaching towards the heavens above, and an aura of serenity that permeates every corner. The attention to detail in Griffin's artwork is truly remarkable; he masterfully captures the essence of this sacred place with his brushstrokes. Through this poster produced by SR during the thriving railway travel era of the 1930s, one can almost hear whispers echoing through time - inviting us to embark on a journey filled with wonder and discovery. Preserved within National Railway Museum's Pictorial Collection, this print stands as a testament not only to Winchester's allure but also to Southern Railway's commitment in promoting rail travel experiences beyond mere transportation. It reminds us that beneath our bustling modern world lie hidden gems like Winchester Cathedral waiting patiently for those who seek solace amidst history's embrace.
