EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the golden era of travel, capturing the essence of Cornwall's picturesque Polperro Harbour. The Great Western Railway poster, created by the talented artist P M Hill between 1923 and 1947, beautifully showcases this idyllic fishing village nestled along the rugged coast. Polperro Harbour exudes a timeless charm with its quaint cottages huddled together and colorful boats gently bobbing in the crystal-clear waters. As we gaze at this mesmerizing scene, we can almost feel the salty sea breeze on our faces and hear seagulls calling overhead. The artwork skillfully captures the allure of holidays spent in these enchanting fishing villages. It beckons travelers to escape bustling city life and immerse themselves in Cornwall's tranquil beauty. Whether it be strolling along narrow cobblestone streets or indulging in freshly caught seafood at charming seaside eateries, Polperro offers an authentic coastal experience that is both serene and invigorating. As we admire this remarkable piece from National Railway Museum's Pictorial Collection, it serves as a reminder of how railway posters once enticed adventure-seekers to explore new destinations across Britain. Today, it stands as a testament to Cornwall's enduring appeal - a place where time seems to stand still amidst breathtaking natural landscapes and rich maritime heritage.
