Created between 1923-1947 for London Midland & Scottish (LMS) and London & North Eastern Railways (LNER), this stunning print captures the essence of a picturesque seaside destination in Scotland. The artwork by Cecil King beautifully depicts a cliff-top view overlooking Rothesay bay, where azure waters meet rolling hills in perfect harmony. The scene comes alive with pleasure boats gracefully approaching and departing from a bustling pier. The vibrant colors used by King evoke a sense of joy and excitement, inviting viewers to embark on their own adventure to this idyllic coastal town. Royal Rothesay's reputation as a premier holiday spot is evident in every brushstroke. With its breathtaking landscapes, charming architecture, and rich history, it's no wonder that visitors flocked here during its heyday.

Preserved within the National Railway Museum's Pictorial Collection, this timeless piece not only showcases exceptional artistic talent but also reminds us of an era when rail travel was synonymous with exploration and discovery. It stands as a testament to both the beauty of Royal Rothesay and the enduring appeal of these iconic railway companies' promotional efforts throughout history.
