EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a piece of history lost to time. The image showcases the old houses that once stood proudly on the south-east corner of Sloane Square, London. However, their existence was short-lived as they were sadly demolished in 1902. Among these structures is The Wellesley House, an architectural gem that now only lives on through this print. Taken by an English photographer in the 20th century, this photo belongs to a private collection and offers a glimpse into London's past. It serves as an illustration for Harold Clunn's book "London Rebuilt 1897-1927" showcasing the transformation of the city during that period. The contrast between old and new is evident in this image, highlighting the ever-changing nature of architecture and development over time. These houses represent a bygone era, standing as witnesses to London's rich history. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded of how cities evolve and grow while leaving behind fragments of their past. It invites us to reflect on our own surroundings and appreciate both the beauty found in preservation and the necessity for progress. With its historical significance and architectural charm, this print from Bridgeman Images allows us to connect with London's vibrant heritage while also acknowledging its continuous reinvention throughout time.
