This print showcases a remarkable LNER poster from 1923-1947, promoting the enchanting city of Durham in County Durham. The artwork, skillfully crafted by Fred Taylor (1875-1963), transports viewers to a picturesque scene featuring the iconic Durham Castle. As one's gaze wanders across the image, charming houses and an elegant bridge come into view, creating a sense of tranquility and timeless beauty. Printed by John Waddington Ltd in Leeds & London, this poster exemplifies the golden age of rail travel when exploring new destinations was both exciting and glamorous.
