EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the bustling streets of late 19th century London. From the vantage point of Waterloo Bridge, we are presented with a mesmerizing view of empty streets at Lancaster Place. The stone balustrades adorned with elegant lampposts guide our gaze towards a wide street lined with magnificent Georgian buildings. As we immerse ourselves in this architectural masterpiece frozen in time, it is worth noting that on the far corner stands a theater proudly showcasing 'My Girl. ' This snippet from history reminds us that even amidst an era defined by its grandeur and sophistication, entertainment played an integral role in people's lives. Interestingly, since this photograph was taken over a century ago, significant changes have occurred. An underpass now connects the foot of Waterloo Bridge to Aldwych and Kingsway in Holborn.

Preserved within these monochrome frames lies not just a visual spectacle but also glimpses into the rich heritage and cultural tapestry woven by generations past. This image serves as a testament to London's enduring allure and its ability to seamlessly blend tradition with progress.
