EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Stay at Dartmouth" takes us back to the 1930s, when Great Western Railway (GWR) used stunning posters like this one to entice travelers to visit the charming Devon resort. The artwork, created by Frieda Lingstrom, showcases a breathtaking view of the Dart Estuary. In the background stands the majestic Dartmouth Castle, adding an air of history and grandeur to this picturesque scene. In the foreground, two small children stand on rocks, seemingly captivated by their surroundings. Their presence adds a touch of innocence and wonderment to an already enchanting landscape. It's as if they are beckoning us to come and explore all that Dartmouth has to offer. Frieda Lingstrom's talent shines through in her ability to capture not only natural beauty but also evoke emotions through her artistry. Her studies at prestigious institutions such as Central School of Arts and Crafts and Heatherleys undoubtedly contributed to her exceptional skills. Beyond travel propaganda for English tourists, Lingstrom was commissioned by both Norwegian and Swedish governments for Scandinavian drawings. She also designed posters for LNER (London & North Eastern Railway) and gained recognition for her remarkable landscape paintings. Measuring 1016mm x 635mm, this print is a true testament to Lingstrom's artistic prowess. Displaying it proudly would transport any viewer into a world where castles overlook serene estuaries while promising unforgettable holidays in delightful resorts like Dartmouth.
