EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic St Pancras Station in London, taken in 2012 by photographer Ethel Davies. The focal point of this image is the magnificent statue of Sir John Betjeman, a renowned poet who played a pivotal role in saving the station from demolition during the 1960s. Sculptor Paul Day immortalized Betjeman's legacy through an impressive 8.5-foot sculpture that now stands proudly beneath the arches of the renovated St Pancras International Train Station. The photograph beautifully captures both the grandeur and historical significance of this architectural masterpiece. St Pancras Station, with its towering height reaching up to 85 feet, has been meticulously restored to its former glory.

This particular shot highlights not only the timeless beauty of St Pancras Station but also pays homage to those responsible for its preservation. Located in NW1, London, England, this photograph serves as a visual testament to how artistry and dedication can breathe new life into historic landmarks.
