Breakers Yard - A Glimpse into the Past
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this portrait, photographer Chris Ware takes us back in time to October 1966, offering a poignant snapshot of the defunct car industry at Kernahan and Son Ltd scrapyard in Hammersmith, London. The image transports us to an era when road transport was vastly different from what we know today. The composition showcases rows upon rows of broken-down vehicles awaiting their fate. These once-mighty machines now stand as mere remnants, ready to be dismantled and recycled. Each car tells its own story - tales of journeys taken and memories made on European roads long ago. Ware's keen eye for detail captures the essence of decay and abandonment within this industrial landscape. The desolate atmosphere is palpable as rusted metal frames contrast against a backdrop of overgrown weeds and cracked concrete. This photograph not only serves as a visual record but also invites contemplation about our relationship with transportation and consumerism throughout history. It prompts reflection on how society has evolved since these cars were last driven down those very streets. As we gaze upon this vintage print from Fine Art Storehouse, we are reminded that even in their dilapidated state, these forgotten vehicles hold beauty in their weathered exteriors—a testament to the passage of time and the resilience found amidst decay.
