EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Fog-Signalling" takes us back to the early 20th century, immersing us in the world of railways and travel. The image showcases a man standing on a steam-powered locomotive, surrounded by an ethereal fog. It is evident that this moment captures the essence of a time when trains were at their peak, symbolizing progress and innovation. The atmosphere depicted in this artwork is both mysterious and thrilling. The fog envelops everything around, creating an air of suspense as it obscures the tracks ahead. In order to ensure safe passage through these treacherous conditions, the man on top of the train activates detonators – small explosive devices that emit loud noises to warn other trains of their presence. The combination of fire, noise, and dense fog creates a visually striking scene that highlights both danger and ingenuity. This image serves as a reminder of how railway systems have evolved over time to overcome various challenges posed by nature itself. "Fog-Signalling" not only celebrates the age-old tradition of rail travel but also pays homage to those who worked tirelessly behind-the-scenes to make it possible. It invites viewers to reflect upon our collective journey towards progress while appreciating the beauty found within transportation's history.
