Art Deco: The Golden Age of the Poster Design
Visitors to London Transport Museum’s new exhibition will be able to explore how art deco, a revolutionary visual arts, design and architecture style, influenced its iconic transport posters. With more than 100 original posters from the museum's collection, alongside pieces from significant collections, including the work of architect Charles Holden, who helped change the face of London with his remarkable new Tube station commissions, this exhibition explores how art deco made its mark on London's transport art and design heritage.
