Derbyshire Dales - Dovedale

Dovedale

Derbyshire Dales

Sadly , the clarity and crispness of this poster is not as high as we would like because the quality of the original we had to work was less than wonderful . It is still a lovely poster though, and it's lack of sharpness is reflected in the reduced price.

This is the 1930’s version of Dovedale in the Derbyshire Dales painted for LMS .

The Artist was born in nearby Derby and he painted 2 versions of this view , the second in the 1950’s . This first one was commissioned by London Midland and Scottish group ,when the railways were still in their pre 1948 structure .
