EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1934 in Eltham, Kent. As we gaze upon the image, a vintage motorcycle zooms past the magnificent St Saviour Church, creating a timeless scene that encapsulates the essence of an era gone by. The monochrome tones add a touch of nostalgia to this snapshot from between the wars. The sharp contrast between light and shadow highlights both the modernity of the motorcycle and the grandeur of St Saviour Church. It's as if time has frozen for just a moment, allowing us to witness this fleeting encounter. Intriguingly, attached to the side of this classic motorbike is a sidecar - perhaps indicating that it was not only used for transportation but also served as an adventurous mode of travel during those times. This detail adds an extra layer of charm and curiosity to an already captivating composition. Photographer John Topham skillfully captures this scene with his lens, showcasing his talent for capturing everyday moments in history. Through his lens, we are transported back in time to experience life as it once was in 1930s England. This print serves as a testament to our ever-evolving world while reminding us that some things remain constant - like beautiful architecture standing tall against changing landscapes and motorcycles roaring through time.
