Description: | The Underground group published this poster in the summer of 1922 to promote travel to London's green spaces by bus. The illustration of a young family enjoying a day's swimming is by the prolific artist Laura Knight. The quote at the bottom, which reiterates the joy of summer, is from a popular poem by Robert Browning (1812 -89).
Knight became the first female Royal Academician in 1936. | Format: | image/jpeg | Publisher: | London Transport Museum | Rights holder: | Transport for London | Subjects: | Environment Leisure Art and Design | Temporal: | 1921 | Source: | London Transport Museum | Creator: | Publisher : Underground Electric Railways Company Ltd | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
