EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, taken in 1926-1927, transports us back to the bustling streets of London in the early 20th century. From atop Bush House, we are granted a breathtaking view looking towards the northern heights from Kingsway. The image captures the essence of a bygone era with its monochrome charm. The cityscape is adorned with magnificent buildings that stand as testaments to British architectural prowess. As our eyes wander through this snapshot frozen in time, we can almost hear the sounds of traffic and transportation echoing through the streets below. The roads are filled with cars and horse-drawn carriages, showcasing how transport has evolved over time. Published in "Wonderful London" edited by Arthur St John Adcock and published by Amalgamated Press, this photograph serves as a window into history for those who gaze upon it today. It offers a glimpse into an England that was rapidly changing yet still retained its quintessential charm. The composition expertly captures both urban grandeur and natural beauty simultaneously. This juxtaposition is evident as we observe lanes merging seamlessly into avenues while nature peeks through pockets of greenery amidst towering structures. As we delve deeper into this remarkable piece of artistry captured by an unknown creator but curated by Arthur St John Adcock, we cannot help but feel grateful for these glimpses into our past that allow us to appreciate how far we have come while cherishing our rich heritage.
