1. Title: A Serene Oasis above Selfridges: A Gardener Tends to the Roof Terrace Lawn, Early 1930s 2. In this evocative black-and-white photograph, a gardener diligently mows the lush, verdant lawn on the roof terrace of Selfridges department store in London during the early 1930s. The scene presents a striking contrast to the bustling city below, where the sounds of commerce and industry dominate the urban landscape. 3. Selfridges, a renowned British retailer, was known for its innovative approach to retailing and customer service. The store, which first opened its doors in 1909, was a trailblazer in the industry, offering a wide range of goods under one roof and creating an atmosphere that appealed to the modern consumer. 4. The roof terrace, an unexpected feature of the store, was a testament to Selfridges' commitment to providing its customers with unique experiences. Designed as a tranquil retreat, the terrace offered a respite from the hustle and bustle of the city and the shopping floor below. 5. The gardener, dressed in a simple, practical outfit, focuses intently on his task, oblivious to the world below. The meticulously manicured lawn, dotted with vibrant flowers and shrubs, stretches out before him, creating a picturesque scene that seems worlds away from the bustling streets of London. 6. The photograph captures the essence of a bygone era, when the boundaries between commerce and nature blurred, and the simple pleasure of a well-tended garden could be found even in the most unexpected places. It serves as a reminder of the power of imagination and the importance of creating spaces that nurture both the mind and the soul. 7. This photograph, taken from the Mary Evans Prints Online collection, offers a glimpse into the past and invites us to reflect on the transformative power of green spaces in the heart of the city. It is a testament to the enduring appeal of nature and the human desire to connect with it, even in the most unexpected places.
