EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the iconic Selfridges department store in London, taken in 2010. Founded by American retail entrepreneur Harry Gordon Selfridge, this architectural masterpiece opened its doors to shoppers in March 1909. Designed by renowned Chicago architect Daniel Burnham, the building stands as a testament to his visionary brilliance. The image showcases the grandeur of this British emporium situated on Oxford Street in the City of Westminster. The vibrant colors and bustling atmosphere reflect the energy and liveliness of one of London's most famous shopping destinations. Pedestrians can be seen strolling along the pavement, captivated by the allure of Selfridges' exterior. A black cab adds a touch of quintessential British charm to the scene, symbolizing both tradition and modernity coexisting harmoniously within this cosmopolitan city. This fusion is further emphasized by Peter Thompson's expertly captured photograph that beautifully juxtaposes elements from both 20th-century architecture and contemporary street life. Selfridges remains an enduring symbol not only for its historical significance but also for its continued relevance as a premier shopping destination. Its presence has become synonymous with luxury and style, attracting shoppers from all corners of the globe. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of how architecture can shape our experiences and define our cities. It serves as a reminder that great buildings transcend borders and cultures while leaving an indelible mark on their surroundings – just like Selfridges does on London's ever-evolving landscape
