EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, taken by Terry Parker in 1927, captures the elegant ambiance of Bluthner Pianos' showroom located on Wigmore Street in London's bustling W1 postal district. The room is bathed in a soft, warm glow from the mauve-shaded table lamp in the corner, casting long shadows on the polished brown wooden floor. Through the large window, the hustle and bustle of the busy London street is visible, with the occasional passing motor car adding a sense of modernity to the scene. At the heart of the room stands a grand, high-quality Bluthner piano, its sleek, glossy black exterior reflecting the light from the lamp. The piano's keyboard, with its intricate ivory and ebony keys, is poised and ready for a virtuoso performance. The room's understated decor, with its muted color palette and understated furnishings, serves to highlight the piano as the true centerpiece of the space. The Bluthner Pianos company, founded in Leipzig, Germany in 1853, was renowned for producing pianos of the highest quality, with a focus on the Stradivarius sound. By the 1920s, the company had established a strong presence in the UK, with several showrooms in major cities. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when music was a cherished pastime and the piano was the epitome of luxury and sophistication.
