In this photograph, taken in 1937, we witness the sheer power and grace of C Holloway, a coloured athlete from Brixton building school. Like a magnificent Greek statue come to life, he stands tall against the backdrop of the imposing Battersea Power Station. With his javelin firmly in hand, Holloway symbolizes the indomitable strength of humanity as he prepares for the White City school sports. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to this image, transporting us back to an era between the wars when resilience and determination were paramount. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, it serves as a poignant reminder that even amidst towering obstacles like industrialization and societal barriers, human potential knows no bounds. This powerful photograph was captured by TopFoto. co. uk's talented press photographer who expertly framed Holloway against the belching towers of Battersea Power Station.
