EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Coronation" a remarkable LNER poster created between 1923 and 1947. The artwork, skillfully crafted by Tom Purvis, captures the essence of speed and elegance as an aerodynamic train races across the iconic Royal Border Bridge over the majestic River Tweed in Berwick-upon-Tweed, Northumberland. Tom Purvis was not only a talented artist but also an advocate for the professionalization of commercial art. In 1930, he played a pivotal role in founding the Society of Industrial Artists, which aimed to enhance training standards for commercial artists and expand their employment opportunities. His dedication to his craft earned him recognition as one of the first Royal Designers for Industry in 1936. Measuring at an impressive size of 1016 mm x 1270 mm, this print transports viewers back to a time when steam trains reigned supreme and landscapes were adorned with magnificent bridges like the Royal Border Bridge.
