EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of urban life in the heart of London's City. The image showcases George Segal's iconic sculpture, Rush Hour, standing proudly outside the main entrance to 1 Finsbury Avenue. Created in the 1980s, this artwork beautifully represents the bustling energy and constant movement that defines a typical rush hour scene. The sculpture itself depicts a group of people frozen in time as they navigate their way through the city streets. Each figure is meticulously crafted by Segal, capturing their unique postures and expressions with remarkable detail. This artistic masterpiece serves as a poignant reminder of our collective experience during those busy hours when everyone seems to be on-the-go. The Breaking New Ground Project, in collaboration with the John Laing Charitable Trust, catalogued this image as part of its mission to preserve and celebrate significant works of art across England. By showcasing this photograph from Historic England Archive, we are able to appreciate not only Segal's talent but also his contribution to shaping public spaces. As you gaze upon this print, take a moment to reflect on your own experiences during rush hour - perhaps you can relate to these individuals caught up in the daily hustle and bustle. Let it serve as a reminder that amidst all the chaos lies beauty and inspiration waiting to be discovered within our vibrant cities.
