EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant poster captures the essence of transport by train from Paris to London at the end of the 19th century. Created by E. Nerme, a renowned artist of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, this poster showcases the efficient transportation system that allowed for seamless travel between these two iconic cities. The focal point of the image is a beautifully adorned train, filled with an abundance of flowers and fruits. This suggests that not only were people able to travel effortlessly between Paris and London, but also goods such as fresh produce could be transported swiftly across borders. The colors used in this print are strikingly vivid, adding to its allure and historical significance. The attention to detail in depicting both the train and its cargo highlights how important this mode of transportation was during this era. Commissioned by West Railway in France, this poster served as a promotional tool for their services. It aimed to entice potential travelers with its depiction of luxurious travel options while subtly emphasizing the convenience it offered for transporting goods. Preserved through time, this historic piece serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of transportation technology. It invites us to appreciate our modern conveniences while acknowledging the importance placed on efficient movement even over a century ago.
