EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the chaos that ensued due to treacherous road conditions in the heart of Glasgow. Taken on 4th December 1961, it showcases a scene of utter mayhem as traffic comes to a standstill. The focal point of the image is an invalid car stranded amidst the gridlock on Bothwell Street. In this moment of desperation, pedestrians lend a helping hand by pushing the disabled vehicle through the snow-covered streets. Their determination and unity shine through as they work together to alleviate the congestion caused by these chaotic road conditions. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of how weather can disrupt even the busiest cities, bringing them to their knees. It also highlights the resilience and compassion exhibited by ordinary citizens when faced with adversity. Glasgow's iconic landmarks, such as Clydesdale and North of Scotland Bank, provide a familiar backdrop against which this extraordinary event unfolds. This snapshot from history offers us a glimpse into life in 1960s Glasgow – where unpredictable weather could transform bustling streets into scenes reminiscent of an obstacle course. Stewart's expertly captured moment freezes time, allowing us to reflect on both our vulnerability in face of nature's whims and our capacity for collective action during times of crisis.
