EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting era of 1933, when the London Midland & Scottish Railway (LMS) sought to entice travelers to the breathtaking wonders of Snowdonia in Wales.

As we gaze at this masterpiece, we are transported into a world where ancient stories come alive and sweet murmurs of mountain streams serenade our senses. The LMS proudly proclaimed that Snowdon and the Welsh Highlands were synonymous with ravishing beauty, inviting holidaymakers to immerse themselves in this romantic region. Baker's artistic prowess shines through as he captures the essence of Gwynedd's picturesque landscape. His expertise in oil painting is evident as every brushstroke brings out the vibrant hues and intricate details of Tryfan peaks against a backdrop of rolling hills. It is worth noting that Charles H Baker was not only an accomplished artist but also Head of Research at California's prestigious Huntington Library. His talents extended beyond landscapes on canvas; he also designed striking posters for LMS. This remarkable print from National Railway Museum serves as a timeless reminder of Snowdonia's allure and its enduring appeal as a destination for those seeking natural beauty intertwined with rich cultural heritage.
