EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the early 20th century, showcasing a remarkable LNER poster from 1923-1947. Created by talented artist Fred Taylor, this piece of art captures the essence of Ripon Cathedral like never before. The aerial perspective allows us to marvel at the grandeur and architectural beauty of this magnificent structure. From above, we are treated to a breathtaking view of Ripon Cathedral nestled amidst its surroundings. Its towering spires reach towards the heavens, while intricate details adorn every corner. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he expertly recreates every aspect of this iconic landmark. As our eyes wander across the image, we notice a serene graveyard with gravestones scattered throughout. This juxtaposition between life and death adds an intriguing element to the composition, reminding us that history and memories lie beneath these hallowed grounds. The photograph itself was based on a snapshot taken by Aerofilms Ltd. , capturing Ripon Cathedral in all its glory from high above. It serves as a testament not only to the artistic talent involved but also highlights how advancements in technology allowed for such unique perspectives. Preserved within National Railway Museum's Pictorial Collection, this print transports us back in time and invites us to appreciate both the historical significance and artistic brilliance behind railway posters during that era.
