EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning LNWR poster from 1905, titled "Dublin & Holyhead". Created by the talented artist Norman Wilkinson, this vintage railway poster is a true masterpiece. The image transports us to an era of grandeur and adventure, inviting us to embark on a remarkable journey. The vibrant colors and intricate details of the artwork immediately catch the eye. The focal point of the poster is undoubtedly the majestic steamship sailing across the vast sea between Dublin and Holyhead. Its billowing smoke adds an element of dynamism to the scene, hinting at the excitement that awaits travelers on board. The composition skillfully combines elements of both land and sea travel. On one side, we see a bustling railway station with its iconic architecture and busy platforms. Passengers eagerly await their departure as they clutch their luggage in anticipation. On the other side, waves crash against rocky cliffs, creating a sense of drama and natural beauty. This LNWR poster not only serves as an advertisement for this particular route but also captures a snapshot of history – it reflects society's fascination with exploration during that time period. It reminds us how railways revolutionized transportation by connecting distant places like Dublin and Holyhead. Preserved by NRM/Pictorial Collection at National Railway Museum, this print allows us to appreciate Wilkinson's artistic talent while offering glimpses into our rich heritage. It evokes nostalgia for simpler times when travel was seen as an exciting endeavor filled with endless possibilities
