EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the early 20th century, when train travel was at its peak and seaside destinations were all the rage. The poster, produced by London & North Eastern Railway (LNER), showcases the picturesque towns of Saltburn and Marske-by-the-Sea in Cleveland as ideal holiday spots. The artwork by J Greenup beautifully captures the essence of these coastal gems, with their sandy beaches stretching out into the horizon. In this bustling scene, we see families enjoying a day at the beach - women donning fashionable accessories and stylish day wear while children play around them. Men can be seen strolling along the coast, taking in the refreshing sea breeze. These images not only depict personal lives but also reflect social and economic aspects of that era. The vibrant beach huts dotting the shoreline add a touch of charm to this idyllic setting, symbolizing leisure and relaxation for those seeking an escape from city life. As we gaze upon this vintage railway poster art piece, it transports us to a time when holidays meant exploring new places via train journeys. It serves as a reminder of how much has changed over time while evoking nostalgia for simpler days spent on sun-kissed shores.
