EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the years between 1948 and 1965 when British Railways (BR) sought to entice travelers to the enchanting town of Boston, Lincolnshire. Created by the talented artist Freda Marston, this vintage poster showcases a picturesque scene that perfectly captures the essence of this medieval gem. The focal point of the artwork is undoubtedly the magnificent Stump Church, an architectural marvel that has stood tall for centuries. Its towering spire dominates the skyline and serves as a testament to Boston's rich history and religious heritage. Nestled amidst charming rivers and meandering waterways, this idyllic setting offers a serene escape from bustling city life. British Railways' promotional efforts are evident in every detail of this stunning composition. The carefully chosen colors evoke a sense of nostalgia while simultaneously inviting viewers to embark on an adventure through time. The poster effortlessly portrays Boston as a destination where ancient charm meets modern convenience, thanks to BR's efficient train services. Preserved by the National Railway Museum's Pictorial Collection, this print not only celebrates Britain's railway heritage but also highlights how art played an integral role in promoting travel during that era. As we gaze upon it today, we can't help but be transported back in time - imagining ourselves strolling along cobbled streets or exploring hidden corners of this historic town.
