WALTER TILL (1880-1930)

SEE IRELAND FIRST. Circa 1925.


39 1/2x24 1/2 inches, 100 1/4x62 1/4 cm. Hely's Limited, Dublin.
Condition A-: minor restoration in margins and along vertical and horizontal folds; slight scuffing in upper left image.

Till designed a number of images for the GSR (Great Southern Rys) Railway and also a few for the Irish Tourist Association. Here, for the latter, the magic of the Emerald Isle is theatrically revealed as a woman draws back a curtain to reveal the splendors of Ireland: there are lakes, hills, a sports car touring the valleys, men going fly-fishing, a train and more.
