EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur of Harrods, one of London's most iconic landmarks, during a significant moment in history. The image showcases the addition of the Coronation Tower to commemorate the coronation of King George V. The vibrant colors and intricate details depicted in this 20th-century lithograph by English School bring to life the bustling scene surrounding Harrods. As we gaze upon this snapshot from the past, we are transported back to a time when horse-drawn carriages shared the streets with early motor vehicles. The presence of buses and cars highlights how public transport was evolving rapidly during that era. It is fascinating to see how people relied on these means of transportation as they went about their daily lives, perhaps stopping at Harrods for some retail therapy or residing in one of its luxurious apartments nearby. This photograph not only captures a historical moment but also serves as a reminder of how architecture can be used to commemorate important events. The Coronation Tower stands tall and proud against the backdrop of Knightsbridge, symbolizing unity and celebration. As we admire this stunning piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, it is impossible not to appreciate both its artistic value and its ability to transport us back in time. This print truly encapsulates an era where tradition meets progress, making it an invaluable piece for any art enthusiast or history lover alike.
