EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling city of Southampton in the 1930s. The focal point of the image is Bargate, a magnificent medieval gateway that once served as an entrance to this historic city. Standing tall and proud, it exudes a sense of grandeur and strength, reminding us of its rich past. The print captures every intricate detail of Bargate's architecture, showcasing its sturdy stone walls and impressive towers. Its imposing presence is further accentuated by the surrounding medieval city walls, which add an air of mystery and intrigue to the scene. Donald Maxwell's artistic touch brings this railway carriage print to life, transporting us into a bygone era when steam trains were a common sight in Southampton. This particular print holds even more significance as it was carefully removed from London & South Western Railway Tri-Composite Carriage No 3598 during restoration at the National Railway Museum. As we gaze upon this remarkable poster, we are reminded not only of Southampton's architectural beauty but also of the vital role railways played in connecting cities across England. It serves as a testament to our shared history and reminds us how transportation has evolved over time. With NRM/Pictorial Collection proudly preserving such treasures from our railway heritage, this print allows us to appreciate both artistry and history intertwined within one frame.
