EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Chichester Photographic Collection takes us back in time to November 17th, 1961. The image showcases the remarkable craftsmanship of R Smith (Horley) Ltd. , as they construct the steel frames for the iconic Chichester Festival Theatre. The composition is a testament to both engineering excellence and artistic vision. The intricate network of steel beams creates a mesmerizing pattern against the backdrop of an overcast sky. Each frame stands tall, ready to support and shape this grand cultural landmark that has become synonymous with Chichester. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, it evokes a sense of anticipation and excitement for what lies ahead within those walls. It reminds us that every great masterpiece begins with humble beginnings, in this case, with these sturdy yet elegant steel structures. Preserved by West Sussex County Council's Record Office, this photograph serves as a visual reminder of our rich architectural heritage and the dedication required to bring such ambitious projects to life. It invites us to appreciate not only the final result but also the meticulous planning and construction process behind it. Let this image transport you back more than half a century ago when these steel frames were erected - marking an important milestone in Chichester's history - forever etched into its cultural tapestry.
