This print takes us back to the glamorous era of horse racing at Royal Ascot in 1938. The poster, created by renowned artist Lee-Elliott for the Southern Railway (SR), showcases their special trains and fares from London's Waterloo station to this prestigious event. The vibrant colors and exquisite details transport us to a time when rail travel was not only practical but also an elegant affair. As we gaze upon the image, we can almost hear the excited chatter of well-dressed racegoers boarding these specially arranged trains. The poster captures the essence of Royal Ascot, with its iconic racecourse nestled amidst lush green fields. Horses gallop gracefully across the track while jockeys clad in colorful silks urge them on towards victory. It is a scene that epitomizes both speed and grace, perfectly encapsulating the excitement that awaits those who choose to embark on this railway journey. The collaboration between SR and Lee-Elliott has resulted in a masterpiece that effortlessly combines artistry with promotion. This stunning visual representation entices viewers to experience firsthand the thrill of witnessing world-class horse racing at one of Britain's most celebrated events. As we admire this historical piece from National Railway Museum's Pictorial Collection, it serves as a reminder of how railways have played an integral role in connecting people with extraordinary experiences throughout history – such as attending Royal Ascot – making memories that last a lifetime.
