EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Bargain Shoes" takes us back to the bustling streets of London in 1962. The image captures a moment at Walworth Market, where rows upon rows of shoes are being sold at bargain prices. It is a snapshot of a bygone era, just before this traditional site was closed for redevelopment into a modern glass-covered space. The composition of the photograph is striking, with its landscape format allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the scene. The formation and collection of objects - an array of shoes neatly displayed on tables and racks - create a visual feast for the eyes. Each pair tells its own story, worn by countless individuals who walked these very streets. Chris Ware's keen eye as a photographer shines through in this image. He skillfully captures not only the physicality of the market but also the essence and spirit that permeate such vibrant spaces. We can almost hear the chatter between buyers and sellers, feel their excitement as they search for that perfect pair. As we gaze upon this historic moment frozen in time, it serves as a reminder of how our surroundings constantly evolve. Change may be inevitable, but photographs like these allow us to preserve precious memories and honor our collective pasts.
