EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Stephen Rafferty, we are transported to the heart of London, where history and architecture intertwine seamlessly. The focus of the image is on a remarkable detail of London Bridge, showcasing a magnificent statue of a Griffin perched proudly on the Southwark side. These mythical creatures hold more significance than meets the eye; they symbolize not only the historical city boundary but also served as toll collection points for weary travelers in times gone by. The photograph beautifully captures the essence of urban life in one of Europe's most iconic cities. The intricate architectural details that adorn London Bridge are brought to life through Rafferty's lens, highlighting its grandeur and timelessness. As we gaze upon this image, we can almost hear the hustle and bustle of commuters making their way across this historic landmark. Rafferty's composition allows us to appreciate both the rich history and modernity that coexist within London's bustling streets. The juxtaposition between old-world charm and contemporary transport systems creates an intriguing visual narrative that speaks volumes about England's capital city. This stunning print serves as a reminder that even amidst rapid development and progress, there are still remnants from our past worth cherishing. It invites us to reflect on how these ancient structures have shaped our present-day lives while reminding us to embrace our heritage with pride.
