EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the enchanting streets of St James's, London in the 1920s. The focal point of this image is a majestic brick gatehouse that stands proudly as the entrance to a royal hunting lodge. Its intricate design and sturdy structure exude an air of grandeur, reflecting the opulence associated with British royalty. The gatehouse features a prominent clock face, its hands frozen in time, reminding passersby of the importance of punctuality even within such regal surroundings. Through its windows, one can only imagine the bustling activity within - perhaps servants preparing for an upcoming hunt or nobles discussing matters of state. The photograph captures not only a building but also a moment in history when Britain was transitioning into modernity while still cherishing its rich heritage. It serves as a reminder that amidst rapid urbanization and societal changes, there are pockets where tradition remains steadfast. Published in "Wonderful London" edited by Arthur St John Adcock and printed by Amalgamated Press in 1926-1927, this photogravure showcases McLeish's talent for capturing architectural beauty with impeccable detail. As we gaze upon this image today, it allows us to appreciate both the craftsmanship behind these historic structures and their significance within our cultural landscape.
