This print showcases the front cover of the Furness Railway timetable from 1915. The beautifully illustrated artwork depicts a young woman immersed in her creative process, sitting at an easel and painting a breathtaking view of Lake Windermere in the picturesque Lake District. The Furness Railway Company, which operated independently from 1846 to 1923, initially started as a mineral railway but later played a significant role in shaping the town of Barrow-in-Furness, Cumbria.
