Description: | Roy White produced a series of watercolours of Jubilee Line Extension stations. This painting shows what the designs for Southwark stations would look like when they were operational.
The structural designs of architects MacCormac Jamieson Prichard echoed 1930s stations by Holden, such as Arnos Grove. The Network Rail line, to the right of the building, illustrates the connection Southwark station made between the Underground network and suburban rail services at Waterloo east.
White's vision projects the image of a warm, inviting station. As future passengers descend the stairs to the circular ticket hall, the building is illuminated against a grey sky and reflected in the rain-drenched road. | Format: | image/jpeg | Publisher: | London Transport Museum | Rights holder: | Copyright unknown - Collection of London's Transport Museum | Subjects: | Transport Art and Design | Temporal: | 1995 | Source: | London Transport Museum | Creator: | Artist : Roy White | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
