| Description |
In this evocative painting of the Dartmouth Steam Railway, Ms Bella St John captures a timeless moment of quiet reflection. The figure on the platform, clad in a richly textured fur-lined coat, stands as if suspended in time, watching the billowing steam rise from the locomotive. The iconic engine, numbered 75014, is depicted with meticulous attention to detail, exuding a sense of both power and nostalgia. The warm tones of the station platform contrast beautifully with the cool, misty steam, evoking the romance of train travel from a bygone era. This artwork serves as a tribute not only to the enduring charm of the Dartmouth Steam Railway but also to the connection between past and present that Ms St John so passionately preserves in her work. |
