EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of London's Leicester Square, showcasing its north and east sides soon after a transformative period. The image, taken by an English photographer in the 20th century, is part of a private collection. It serves as an illustration for E Beresford Chancellor's book "The West End of Yesterday and Today" published in 1926. Leicester Square, once again restored to its former glory, stands tall with its historic buildings lining both sides. This snapshot freezes a moment in time when the transformation was complete, offering us a glimpse into the early 20th-century architecture that defined this iconic area. As we delve into this photograph's details, we can appreciate the rich history embedded within each building. These structures tell stories of London's past and reflect the grandeur of an empire at its peak. The low angle chosen by Mr Ingle emphasizes their imposing presence against the backdrop of a bustling cityscape. This image not only showcases Leicester Square but also provides insight into London's West End during this era. Its historical significance makes it more than just another architectural photograph; it becomes a window through which we can explore and appreciate our cultural heritage.
