Original poster artwork ISLE OF MAN (DOUGLAS HARBOUR) by Frank Wooton. Produced for the BR LMR quad royal poster. Oil on canvas professionally framed and perspex glazed with a card facsimile of the poster text at the bottom which can be removed. A superb painting in excellent condition measures 53in x 43in. Circa 1955 and signed WOOTON.
The text can be removed - the flowers on the right are part of the painting on the canvas and the text addition (which would have been added by the printers) is shaped around it. The text addition was created on thin card by scanning the original poster text and printing on a large format printer (by the vendor). It was purchased by the vendor several years ago from the family of a man who worked in the Euston LMS/LMR Public Relations & Publicity Office at Euston together with some other LMS & LMR poster artworks including several large canvases by Norman Wilkinson.
Frank Wootton 1911-1998 - Landscape painter in oil & watercolour, poster designer, author, illustrator. Born Milford, Hants 30/7/1911. Studied at Eastbourne School of Art. Was founder president of the Guild of Aviation Artists. Author of How to draw Cars and How to draw Aircraft. Official artist to the R.A.F. 1944-46. Produced poster artwork for the railways. Lived in Alfriston, Sussex. His artworks are now highly regarded.
