EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the grandeur of The National Central Library, located in Malet Place, Tottenham Court Road, London. With its impressive stock of 100,000 volumes, this iconic institution serves as a hub for knowledge and learning. The library not only lends books to public libraries both at home and abroad but also has plans to expand its collection to over a million volumes. In the image, we see a sophisticated woman standing amidst rows of neatly stacked books. She exudes an air of authority as she navigates through the shelves with grace and poise. Her fashion choices reflect the style of the 20th century, with her hair styled in a fashionable Marcel wave. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to this photograph by Alfieri. It transports us back in time while reminding us that knowledge knows no bounds or era. A small book lift can be seen in the background, symbolizing the seamless movement between floors within this vast repository of information. Alfieri's skillful composition captures not just an architectural marvel but also pays homage to those who dedicate their lives to preserving literature and promoting literacy – librarians like our protagonist here. This Europeana photography print is truly a testament to the enduring power of books and their ability to shape minds across generations.
