EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to 1951 with this print of the Dome of Discovery and the Skylon, two iconic attractions from the Festival of Britain exhibition on London's South Bank. Despite the thundery sky and rain, visitors can be seen outside marveling at these famous structures that were a symbol of post-war optimism and innovation.
The Dome of Discovery, with its futuristic design, housed various exhibits showcasing advancements in science, technology, and industry. Meanwhile, the Skylon towered above as a sleek and modern monument representing progress and hope for the future.
This historical image captures a moment in time when London was buzzing with excitement over this grand exhibition that aimed to inspire creativity and unity among its citizens. The festival was a celebration of British culture and achievement after years of hardship during World War II.
