Description
This light-up canvas picture shows a vintage steam train crossing a snowy stone viaduct by night. Its front lamp shines and a great plume of smoke catches the glow as it rolls through the mountains. A line of red carriages follows along the arches with every window warmly lit, snow-laden firs crowd the slopes on either side, and a few chalets glow on the hillside beneath a deep violet sky full of falling snow. LEDs in the canvas bring the scene to life when it is lit, so the picture gives a soft festive light as well as a view to get lost in. The whole scene sits within an ornate gold-toned frame, its scrolling pattern softened by a muted green wash that suits the old-fashioned charm of the train.
We think it looks its best indoors on a dark winter evening, when its lights shine out against the night-time scene and the carriages in the picture seem to glow from within. Give it pride of place in the living room for the Christmas season, bring a welcoming touch to a hallway, or let it set a cosy mood in a dining room or a snug where the family gathers. The landscape shape and wide mountain view make it an easy partner for evergreen garlands, candles and a few fairy lights nearby, and it is just as happy on its own in a quieter corner that needs a little festive warmth.
The scene is on canvas, with LEDs set into the picture, and the frame's detailed moulding adds depth and a traditional finish. Care is simple: dust the canvas and frame gently with a soft dry cloth, and store it flat somewhere cool and dry when the decorations come down, so it is ready for next winter. Light it as the evenings draw in and it soon becomes a favourite part of the Christmas build-up.
