EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the beauty of golf in Northern Ireland, specifically at Portrush in County Antrim. Commissioned by the London Midland & Scottish Railway (LMS), this poster was created to promote rail links to this picturesque destination. The artwork, skillfully crafted by renowned marine painter Norman Wilkinson, captures a breathtaking view of the golf course. Measuring 1016 mm x 1270 mm, this poster is part of a series commissioned by LMS that aimed to highlight various sports and pastimes available within their covered area. Wilkinson's expertise shines through as he masterfully portrays the stunning coastal landscape with its rugged cliffs serving as a dramatic backdrop for the golfer on the course. Wilkinson's artistic talent is well-known in railway circles, having designed posters for other prominent companies such as London & North Western Railway (LNWR), London & Midlands Railway (LMR), and Southern Railway (SR). In fact, he played an instrumental role in organizing the Royal Academy series of posters for LMR back in 1924. The National Railway Museum proudly displays this remarkable print from their Pictorial Collection. It serves not only as a testament to Wilkinson's artistry but also as an invitation to explore Northern Ireland's golfing treasures via LMS rail connections.
