The elegant Victorian iron and glass arches frame this tribute to the golden age of steam, evoking memories of a bygone era when York Station, briefly the largest railway station in the world upon its construction, was at the heart of Britain's railway revolution. Abdul has beautifully rendered the atmospheric quality of steam-age travel, celebrating York's rich railway heritage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOriginal watercolour painting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePaper size approximately 12 x 16\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePainted en plein air in York\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e© The Artist\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"* Abdul Malik Nobel *","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56861025272183,"sku":null,"price":200.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0561\/2539\/1014\/files\/steam-train-york-station-an-original-watercolour-by-abdul-malik-nobel-painting-937.webp?v=1777269772","url":"https:\/\/www.yorkartist.com\/products\/steam-train-york-station-an-original-watercolour-by-abdul-malik-nobel","provider":"The Braithwaite Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
