Description: | This Underground publicity poster was published in 1922. It was designed by Harold Sandys Williamson to promote travel to the country. A highly stylised treatment of rural landscapes was popular for travel posters in the 1920s. Williamson has employed this technique for the foreground, where a charming house nestles between the rolling hills. Beyond this brightly coloured suburban dream, London's rooftops merge into a sea of grey.
This image has been signed 'Florian', a pseudonym often used by Williamson. | Format: | image/jpeg | Publisher: | London Transport Museum | Rights holder: | Transport for London | Subjects: | Environment Transport Art and Design | Temporal: | 1922 | Source: | London Transport Museum | Creator: | Printer : Chromoworks Ltd | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
