EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment in history, showcasing the intricate process of moving waxworks into a van bound for Madame Tussauds' new premises in Marylebone Road, London. Taken in March 1928 by H. F. Davis, this image exudes an air of nostalgia and curiosity. In the foreground, we see a group of male workers carefully maneuvering lifelike wax figures onto the van's platform. Their focused expressions reveal their dedication to preserving these remarkable works of art. Each figure is impeccably crafted, capturing the likeness of famous historical figures or beloved celebrities. The scene is set against the backdrop of bustling England, with its charming architecture and cobblestone streets adding to the timeless ambiance. The landscape format allows us to appreciate every detail: from the workers' worn-out clothes to the intricate facial features on each waxwork. Madame Tussauds has long been renowned for its extraordinary collection that blurs reality and illusion. This print offers us a glimpse behind-the-scenes at one pivotal moment when these mesmerizing creations were being relocated to their new home. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, it sparks our imagination about what stories these waxworks could tell if they had voices - tales from eras gone by or secrets shared within those hallowed halls on Marylebone Road.
