"Captivating Cornish Charm: Celebrating Graphic Design through Time" Step into the world as we embark on a journey through captivating artworks that have left an indelible mark. In 1938, a GWR poster showcased the enchanting beauty of Cornwall, inviting travelers to explore its picturesque landscapes and idyllic coastal towns. The 1950s brought us "Downland Rambles, " a BR poster that captured the essence of British countryside walks, encouraging people to embrace nature's tranquility. Meanwhile, "Aberdeen - The Silver City by the Sea, " an LMS/LNER poster from 1923-1947, enticed visitors with its elegant portrayal of this Scottish gem. Transporting us back to the mid-1950s is a vibrant BR poster promoting Swanage's allure. Its bold colors and striking imagery beckon tourists towards this seaside haven. Weston-super-Mare also had its moment in the spotlight with a BR poster between 1948-1965, showcasing its golden sands and lively atmosphere. But graphic design isn't limited to travel promotions alone; it extends beyond borders and industries. A powerful British Railways artwork depicted a railway worker manually operating machinery—a testament to human dedication amidst technological progress. Loch Lomond found itself immortalized in stunning posters by both LNER and LMS during the 1940s—each capturing Scotland's natural splendor in their unique styles. Beyond travel advertisements lie iconic commercial designs like Bitter Campari (1921) or Cinzano (1920), where Leonetto Cappiello skillfully merged artistry with advertising prowess. Even political movements embraced graphic design as seen in Dmitriy Stakhievich Moor's thought-provoking anti-imperialism piece titled "Death to World Imperialism" (1919).
