EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting Western Highlands of Scotland in 1935. Created as a promotional poster for the London & North Eastern Railway (LNER), it encapsulates the allure of rail travel through its picturesque depiction. Renowned artist Frank Henry Mason skillfully captures the essence of this breathtaking region, showcasing a steam locomotive gracefully gliding along a tranquil loch, with majestic mountains forming an awe-inspiring backdrop. Mason's artistic prowess is evident in his ability to bring marine and coastal subjects to life, drawing from his extensive experience at sea and involvement in engineering and shipbuilding. His expertise shines through as he masterfully combines elements of nature and transportation in this stunning artwork. Measuring an impressive 1016mm x 1270mm, this print transports viewers into a world where time seems to stand still amidst the rugged beauty of Scotland's highlands. The LNER sought to entice travelers with this mesmerizing scene, inviting them on an unforgettable journey filled with scenic wonders. Preserved by the National Railway Museum's Pictorial Collection, this piece serves as both a testament to Mason's artistic legacy and a reminder of the timeless appeal that railways hold for wanderers seeking adventure amidst nature's grandeur.
