EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a poignant and powerful scene in the heart of London. Standing tall and proud, the iconic Cenotaph national war memorial takes center stage, its solemn presence serving as a reminder of sacrifice and remembrance. Bathed in an ethereal glow from floodlights that illuminate the night sky, this image showcases the monument's grandeur against the backdrop of darkness. Adding an intriguing twist to this already evocative composition is Spectra, a temporary installation by Japanese artist Ryoji Ikeda. The mesmerizing light display creates an otherworldly atmosphere behind the Cenotaph, casting vibrant hues that seem to dance with intensity. This juxtaposition between tradition and contemporary artistry adds depth and intrigue to an already profound setting. The photograph was taken from a northern perspective, allowing us to appreciate both these elements harmoniously united within one frame. Lucy Millson-Watkins skillfully captures not only the physical beauty of these structures but also their emotional weight - symbols representing lives lost during World War I. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are reminded of our duty to honor those who made unimaginable sacrifices for our freedom. It serves as a timeless tribute that invites contemplation on history's impact while embracing modern artistic expression – truly capturing London's spirit at nightfall.
