EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a poignant moment in history, showcasing the now-lost Limehouse church in all its Victorian grandeur. Taken between 1940 and 1944 by the talented photographer Herbert Leo Felton, this image reveals St Johns Church on Halley Street, Limehouse, London. The church stands proudly from the south, but its damaged roof serves as a haunting reminder of the devastating impact of the Blitz during World War II. Intriguingly juxtaposed against this architectural gem are towering gasometers that loom ominously in the background. These industrial structures add an intriguing contrast to the serene beauty of the church, emphasizing how urban landscapes can seamlessly blend different elements. Sadly, time has not been kind to this negative; it bears signs of wear and tear due to poor condition. However, despite these imperfections, they only enhance our appreciation for Felton's skillful composition and his ability to capture such a significant historical moment. While we mourn the loss of this magnificent church that once graced Limehouse's skyline, let us also celebrate its memory through photographs like these. They serve as powerful reminders of our shared heritage and remind us never to forget those who endured unimaginable hardships during times of war.
