EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling Trafalgar Square of 1843. The iconic Nelson's Column stands proudly at its center, yet something seems amiss - the majestic lions that usually guard its base are absent. Surrounding the column, a web of scaffolding hints at ongoing restoration work, revealing a glimpse into the architectural evolution of this historic landmark. In the backdrop, we catch sight of St Martin-in-the-Fields, an elegant church that has witnessed centuries of London's history unfold. The monochromatic tones lend a timeless quality to this scene captured through William Henry Fox Talbot's salt-fixed calotype process from a paper negative. The absence of people allows us to focus solely on the grandeur and beauty of these architectural marvels. This photograph serves as both an artistic representation and an archival record, preserving a moment in time when Trafalgar Square underwent transformation while still retaining its charm. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are transported to Victorian England where artistry met engineering prowess. It reminds us that even amidst construction and change, there is always room for appreciation and admiration for our cultural heritage.
