This poster was created to entertain the people in the London Underground. They are named 'Wonderground", because they show wonderful and amazing maps. Gill 'maps' Kensington Gardens as it was imagined in J.M.Barries fantasy "Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens" (1906).
The colour lithograph measures 127 x 102 cm!

This poster is part of the finest archive in the world, The London Transport Museum.
In 1980s the collection contained 5000 printed posters and 1000 original artwork.
