[QUOTE="Jivvy, post: 556979, member: 8184"]Well I just went down a rabbit hole. This piece is definitely in the style of many southern railway posters. In particular, of the ones I could identify, those done by D W Burley. [ATTACH=full]170677[/ATTACH] There were others that I didn't get around to identifying artists: [ATTACH=full]170678[/ATTACH] Wondering about this style, led me to Brian Cook [URL]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brian_Batsford[/URL] and the Batsford books and the Jean Berté process for print. [URL]https://www.princeton.edu/~graphicarts/2012/08/jean_berte.html[/URL] Have no idea if that's a legitimate leap (that this poster style came from the books), but it was all quite interesting and I haven't even had breakfast, yet. [USER=118]@kardinalisimo[/USER] what is the piece you have? A poster print? Cut down? Framed? Curious about it.[/QUOTE]
