EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the golden era of rail travel, specifically between 1923 and 1947. Produced by the London & North Eastern Railway (LNER), this vintage poster was designed to entice travelers to explore the picturesque city of Cambridge. The artwork, skillfully crafted by Graham Petrie, a renowned artist of his time, beautifully captures a serene river view of Cambridge. As we gaze upon this enchanting scene, our eyes are drawn towards the tranquil waters reflecting the vibrant blue sky above. Punting boats gracefully glide along the river's surface, their presence adding an air of elegance and leisure to the composition. Majestic bridges span across the waterway, connecting different parts of this historic city. The LNER logo subtly appears at one corner of the poster, reminding viewers that it is through their railway system that such idyllic destinations can be reached with ease and comfort. This image serves as a nostalgic reminder of an era when train journeys were not just about reaching a destination but also about experiencing adventure and discovering new places. Preserved within National Railway Museum's extensive collection, this print transports us back in time while showcasing both artistic brilliance and historical significance. It invites us to appreciate not only Cambridge's timeless beauty but also celebrates an iconic period in rail travel history – where exploration met artistry on every journey taken aboard LNER trains.
