EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the dark and gloomy atmosphere of Soho, London's iconic and historic district, in the early 1970s. Taken in 1973 by renowned photographer Robert Stallard, the image focuses on Tisbury Court W1, a building located on Rupert Street at the far end. The narrow, winding street is bathed in a dim light, creating an intriguing contrast between the illuminated Bengal Bay restaurant on the left and the shadows cast by the buildings on the right. The scene is a snapshot of a bygone era, with people hurrying along the pavement, their faces obscured by the low-hanging street lights. The air seems heavy with the aroma of food from the nearby restaurants, mingling with the sounds of chatter and laughter. The image transports us back to the 1970s, an era marked by change and transformation, as Soho was undergoing a period of transition from its bohemian past to its modern-day status as a vibrant and cosmopolitan area. This photograph is a testament to the enduring allure of Soho, with its unique character and eclectic mix of cultures, cuisines, and creativity. It invites us to explore the hidden corners of this fascinating district, to delve deeper into its rich history and to appreciate the beauty and charm of its dark, narrow streets.
