Irish Travel Art Poster, Giants Causeway, County Antrim, Northern Ireland by Norman Wilkinson

This poster was originally used by London, Midland and Scottish Railway to promote tourism.  The poster  shows an image of the Giants Causeway which is a popular tourist attraction situated in the north coast of Northern Ireland.  The basalt rock columns of the causeway are shaped with mostly six sides to them and have become widely known as the 'Eighth Wonder of the World'.  Legend says that the causeway was built by a Giant who made a bridge out of these stones, and that the bridge crossed from Northern Ireland to Scotland.
