EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a vintage LNER poster from 1923-1947, created by the talented artist Tom Purvis. The artwork was commissioned by the London & North Eastern Railway (LNER) to entice travelers to explore the picturesque beauty of Lincolnshire through rail travel. Tom Purvis, an advocate for professionalizing commercial art, played a significant role in promoting and improving standards within this field. In 1930, he co-founded the Society of Industrial Artists with fellow artists who shared his vision for enhancing training opportunities for commercial artists. Their aim was to broaden their scope of employment and elevate their status as professionals. The enchanting scene depicted in this poster transports viewers into a serene world filled with lush trees, winding paths, and a charming railway track that meanders through the landscape. It evokes a sense of tranquility and adventure, inviting individuals to embark on an unforgettable journey through Lincolnshire's idyllic countryside. Tom Purvis' exceptional talent earned him recognition as one of the first Royal Designers for Industry in 1936—an esteemed title bestowed upon those who have made outstanding contributions to design excellence. This remarkable print captures not only the artistic prowess of Tom Purvis but also serves as a testament to the enduring allure of rail travel and its ability to transport us into new realms of exploration and discovery.
