EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment frozen in time on a sunny summer day in August 1939, just one month before the outbreak of World War Two. The bustling streets of London are eerily empty, with only a single bus making its way down Newgate Street towards the iconic Old Bailey courthouse in the City of London.
The historical significance of this image is palpable as we gaze upon a world on the brink of chaos and uncertainty. The vintage street lights illuminate the scene, casting long shadows that hint at the impending darkness that would soon descend upon Europe.
As we study this snapshot from the past, we are transported back to a bygone era when England was teetering on the edge of war. The architecture and atmosphere evoke a sense of nostalgia for a time long gone, yet still hauntingly familiar.
In this image, we see not just an empty street or an old bus, but rather a glimpse into history itself - a reminder of how quickly our lives can be upended by forces beyond our control. It serves as both a warning and a tribute to those who lived through those tumultuous times.
This Rights Managed print is more than just a piece of art - it is a window into another world, inviting us to reflect on our own place in history and what it means to live through uncertain times.
