EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic Gleneagles Hotel, located in Perthshire, Scotland. Produced by the London, Midland & Scottish Railway (LMS) between 1924 and 1947, this poster aimed to promote rail travel to this picturesque region. The image portrays a breathtaking view of the Gleneagles Hotel set against its renowned golf course. Originally constructed with its own railway station by the Caledonian Railway Company, the Gleneagles Hotel opened its doors in 1924 and quickly gained recognition as a Riviera in the Highlands. Its luxurious amenities and stunning surroundings made it an instant hit among high society holidaymakers seeking an exclusive getaway. The artwork for this poster was masterfully created by Norman Wilkinson (1878-1971), a renowned marine painter who studied art at Portsmouth and Southsea Schools of Art. Wilkinson's talent extended beyond his maritime works as he also designed posters for other prominent railway companies such as London & North Western Railway (LNWR), London & Midlands Railway (LMR), and Southern Railway (SR). This remarkable print not only captures the beauty of Gleneagles Hotel but also serves as a testament to the golden era of rail travel when these grand establishments were sought-after destinations for discerning travelers. It is a nostalgic reminder of an era where elegance met adventure on Scotland's enchanting landscapes.
