EDITORS COMMENTS
Passengers on the platform eagerly await the train's departure in this vibrant colour lithograph. The artwork, created by an English School artist in the 20th century, captures a bustling scene from a bygone era. Taken from the pages of 'The Iron Horse' published by Thomas Nelson and Sons in Edinburgh around 1900, this illustration offers a glimpse into early railway travel. Amidst a sea of luggage and baggage, men and women can be seen dressed in their finest attire as they prepare to embark on their journey. A sense of anticipation fills the air as passengers exchange last-minute conversations and bid farewell to loved ones. The station building stands tall behind them, exuding architectural grandeur that reflects the significance of rail travel during this time. Notably, one woman stands out amongst the crowd with her colorful clothing and captivating presence. She embodies both femininity and strength, symbolizing the diverse range of individuals who utilized railways for various purposes – whether it be leisurely travels or nomadic lifestyles. This print serves as a visual time capsule capturing not only an iconic moment but also showcasing how railways connected people from different walks of life. It is a testament to human progress and exploration during the late 19th century through to the early 20th century.
