EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from 1962, the vibrant and glamorous American actress Dorothy Provine makes her grand entrance in London. Dressed head to toe in a striking shade of pink, she exudes an air of excitement as she sets out to explore the city's famous landmarks. With her heart set on sightseeing and indulging in some rubbernecking, Dorothy finds herself warmly embraced by the feathered inhabitants of Trafalgar Square - the pigeons. As if enchanted by her presence, these winged creatures flock around her, creating a whimsical scene against the backdrop of one of London's most iconic spots. The photograph perfectly captures both Dorothy's allure and the charm that lies within Trafalgar Square. Known for her talents as both an actress and singer, Dorothy Provine effortlessly captivates audiences with her magnetic personality. Her hat adds a touch of elegance to her ensemble while emphasizing her unique style. This snapshot freezes a moment in time when two worlds collide - Hollywood glamour meets British tradition. Taken by photographer Freddie Reed during this memorable visit on May 22nd, 1962, this image transports us back to an era filled with music, entertainment, and exploration. It serves as a reminder that even amidst bustling cities like London, unexpected encounters can bring joy and wonderment into our lives – just like those pigeons did for pink-clad Dorothy Provine all those years ago.
