JOHN MACE THE ENGLISH LAKES. Circa 1925.
40x49 3/4 inches. John Horn, London.
Condition A-: repaired tears and restoration in margins, slightly affecting image.
A dramatic vista capturing the beauty of the Lake District with a stream, hills, the lake, cottages and a group of people absorbing the scene. Although not included among the artists listed in Railway Posters, Mace's use of color, shape and form to create a compelling image indicate his ability as a graphic designer.
