EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "A Woodland Glade Within A Few Hundred Yards of the Earls Court Road, c1935" transports us back to a serene summer day in 1930s London. The image, captured by King, showcases a hidden gem nestled within Holland Park in Kensington, west London. Holland Park itself holds historical significance as part of the grounds of Holland House, which tragically suffered heavy bombing during World War Two. However, this particular woodland glade remained untouched by the ravages of war. The monochrome composition beautifully highlights the peacefulness and tranquility that can be found amidst nature's embrace. Towering trees create a majestic canopy overhead while delicate plants adorn the forest floor. It is an enchanting scene that invites one to escape from bustling city life into this idyllic retreat. Published in Arthur St John Adcock's "Wonderful London, Volume 1" this photograph serves as a reminder of Britain's rich landscape heritage and its ability to provide solace even during challenging times. As we gaze upon this timeless snapshot frozen in history, we are reminded of the importance of preserving such natural havens for future generations to enjoy. This print captures not only a moment but also evokes emotions and nostalgia associated with simpler times when finding respite within nature was treasured above all else.
