EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1939, when the Great Western Railway (GWR) sought to entice travelers to explore the picturesque county of Somerset. The poster, skillfully crafted by artist John Bee, transports us into a tranquil countryside scene that epitomizes the charm and beauty of this English region. In this idyllic setting, we are greeted by a young girl and boy standing on the banks of a serene stream. Their presence adds an element of innocence and adventure to the scene. Behind them lies a small stone bridge that gracefully spans across the water, inviting us to cross over and discover what lies beyond. As our eyes wander further into this enchanting landscape, we catch sight of traditional thatched cottages nestled amidst rolling green hills. These quaint dwellings with their rustic charm evoke feelings of warmth and nostalgia. A horse-drawn cart nearby reminds us of simpler times when life moved at a slower pace. The artwork beautifully captures the essence of rural life in Somerset during this era – untouched landscapes dotted with charming villages where time seems to stand still. It beckons us to embark on an exploration through these scenic surroundings, promising unforgettable experiences along every winding road. Measuring 1016 mm x 635 mm, this stunning print from National Railway Museum is not just a piece of art but also serves as a window into history – reminding us how rail travel was once promoted as an avenue for discovering hidden gems like Somerset's breathtaking countryside.
