EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the magic and excitement of a bustling Leicester Square in Central London during the Easter Parade of 1948. The square, famously known for its film premieres and cinema connections, comes alive under the floodlights, casting an ethereal glow over the vibrant scene. In the foreground, a Lyons Corner House van, adorned with the iconic "Swiss Roll" sign, delivers treats to eager customers, adding to the lively atmosphere. The van's headlights pierce through the night, reflecting off the wet pavement, a testament to the occasional rain shower that evening. The square is filled with the hustle and bustle of the West End, with parked cars lining the streets and traffic jams forming at the intersections. The iconic Lyric and Odeon cinemas can be seen in the background, their marquees announcing the latest film releases. The legendary entertainers Judy Garland and Fred Astaire, who were in London for a series of performances, are also spotted in the crowd, adding an extra dash of glamour to the evening. The nighttime setting, the twinkling lights, and the sense of anticipation in the air create a timeless moment that encapsulates the spirit of post-war London in the late 1940s.
