EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the early 20th century, when rail travel was at its peak and the London & North Eastern Railway (LNER) sought to promote their services to the historic city of Lincoln. The poster showcases an exquisite interior view of Lincoln Cathedral's Angel Choir, a true architectural gem that dates back to the 13th century. The Angel Choir gets its name from the stunningly carved angels adorning its walls - a total of 28 heavenly figures that add an ethereal touch to this sacred space. The choir also boasts intricately designed traceried windows in the Decorated style, adding further beauty and grandeur to this medieval masterpiece. However, what makes this particular image even more intriguing is that it captures a moment during restoration work on the choir. Scaffolding partially covers this magnificent structure as skilled craftsmen diligently work towards preserving its splendor for generations to come. The artwork featured in this poster is courtesy of Fred Taylor, a renowned artist known for his ceiling paintings at Lloyds Underwriting Room and murals at Reeds Lacquer Room. His talent extends beyond these commissions as he has exhibited his works at prestigious venues like the Royal Academy and other London galleries. Notably, Taylor has also contributed his artistic skills to organizations such as the Empire Marketing Board and London Transport. This remarkable photograph print serves not only as a testament to LNER's commitment towards promoting rail travel but also highlights Lincoln Cathedral's timeless allure and Fred Taylor's exceptional art
