EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Devon for Sunshine" transports us back to the golden era of travel, capturing the essence of a bygone time. Created between 1923 and 1947, this Great Western Railway poster showcases the remarkable artwork by I Veale. The image takes us on a visual journey through Devon's picturesque towns, enchanting coastlines, and charming seaside resorts. The vibrant colors bring life to the scene as we are greeted with an abundance of sunshine that illuminates every corner of this idyllic destination. As our eyes wander across the print, we are drawn towards the magnificent trees that dot the landscape, their branches swaying gently in harmony with nature's rhythm. Majestic cliffs rise proudly from the coastline, standing as guardians against crashing waves while offering breathtaking views over pristine beaches. One can almost feel a gentle sea breeze caressing their face as they imagine strolling along these shores or exploring quaint villages nestled amidst rolling hills. This image encapsulates everything one could desire from a holiday - tranquility, natural beauty, and endless opportunities for adventure. Preserved within National Railway Museum's Pictorial Collection, this print serves as a timeless reminder of how railway posters were not merely advertisements but works of art themselves. It invites us to step into history and experience firsthand why Devon has long been cherished as an ideal getaway destination for those seeking solace in its radiant sunshine and scenic wonders.
