EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur and historical significance of G-Mex, a railway station turned exhibition hall and car park in Manchester. The image showcases the remarkable Victorian architecture, with its elegant glass and iron structure standing tall against the urban backdrop. The play of light and shadow adds depth to the composition, highlighting every intricate detail of this listed building. Originally built by the Midland Railway Company, G-Mex has undergone a fascinating transformation over time. Once a bustling railway station facilitating transport across the region, it now serves as an iconic venue for exhibitions and events. Its adaptive reuse is a testament to preserving architectural heritage while meeting contemporary needs. The photograph beautifully captures one particular aspect that makes G-Mex truly unique - its magnificent canopy. This architectural feature not only provides shelter but also adds character to the overall design. It stands as a reminder of Manchester's rich industrial past while seamlessly blending into its modern surroundings. Peter Sargeant's skillful lens work brings out every nuance in this stunning image, allowing viewers to appreciate both the historical significance and aesthetic beauty of G-Mex. As we gaze upon this photograph print from Historic England, we are transported back in time while simultaneously appreciating how our cities evolve and repurpose their structures for future generations to enjoy.
