EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1924, when the London, Midland & Scottish Railway (LMS) sought to entice travelers to Aberdeen, Scotland. The poster, skillfully created by Algernon Mayow Talmage, showcases a breathtaking view of Brig o Balgownie. This ancient bridge holds within its stones centuries of history and charm. Dating back to the 13th century, Brig o Balgownie stands as a testament to architectural brilliance. Crafted from a blend of sandstone and granite, this magnificent structure boasts a striking pointed Gothic arch that reaches over 18 meters in height at its apex. With a clear span of 12 meters at its base, it gracefully spans across the flowing river below. The artwork beautifully captures the essence of this historical gem nestled in Aberdeen's landscape. Its intricate details showcase every arch and curve with precision and finesse. As we gaze upon this image today, we are transported back in time - feeling the weight of history on our shoulders. Thanks to National Railway Museum's Pictorial Collection and their dedication to preserving these treasures from our past, we can now admire this remarkable piece of artistry from LMS' promotional campaign for rail travel in Aberdeen. Let us cherish such prints that not only depict stunning landscapes but also serve as reminders of how far we have come in our journey through time.
