What a wonderful day of #6Nations #rugby! England really put on a show at Murrayfield, so impressive given how many player changes they’ve had to make. And Maudie’s 50th cap!

A rectangle colour linocut. The dominant colour is yellow, which is used for the platform & walls & ceiling of an underground train station, lit as they are by electric light. Shadows in the form of triangles of green reappear across the picture. The platform curves from far left to a dark tunnel two thirds of the way towards the picture’s right hand edge. At the platform is a curving red train. At its head is a worker on the platform signalling to it. The train is full of silhouettes of passengers. The platform is empty of them.
The Tube Station, linocut, by Cyril Power, c.1932.
