EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Kenilworth Castle, a historic gem nestled in Warwickshire. The poster was created in 1929 by London, Midland & Scottish Railway (LMS) to entice travelers to explore this enchanting destination through rail travel. The artwork, skillfully crafted by Norman Wilkinson, captures the essence of the castle's red sandstone ruins that date back to the 12th century when it was constructed by William de Clinton. Wilkinson's artistic talent shines through as he expertly portrays the grandeur and allure of this medieval masterpiece. Wilkinson's reputation as a renowned marine painter is evident in his attention to detail and composition. Having studied art at Portsmouth and Southsea Schools of Art, he brought his expertise into designing posters for various railway companies such as London & North Western Railway (LNWR), London & Midlands Railway (LMR), and Southern Railway (SR). Notably, he organized the Royal Academy series of posters for LMR in 1924. This remarkable print not only serves as a visual delight but also pays homage to both historical architecture and railway travel. Preserved within National Railway Museum's Pictorial Collection, it stands as a testament to the enduring charm of Kenilworth Castle while reminding us of an era when rail journeys were celebrated adventures waiting to unfold.
