Description
'The Country in the Future', 1876. A gentleman who has retired to the country tells his city gentleman visitor about the peace and quiet of his new surroundings, disturbed only by the sound of the trains. Both sides of his garden look directly onto railway lines, and the trains can be seen at both sides of the cartoon. This illustrates how the burgeoning railway network was encroaching steadily into previously quiet rural areas in the 1870s. From Punch, or the London Charivari, December 30, 1876.
