Description: | The large and imposing building of Central Station was part of the transformation of the centre of Newcastle in a classically influenced architectural style. Central Station was opened in 1850, and was designed by the Newcastle architect John Dobson. Dobson painted several views of the various stages of his designs for Central Station. This shows the second version with fewer columns than Dobson originally planned. These were cut altogether from the design that was built, and replaced with simpler decoration. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | art movement work artists living in the North East watercolours transport art North East artists designers Newcastle men people | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
