EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur of the South Front of the Piccadilly Hotel, a magnificent architectural masterpiece erected in 1908. Designed by Richard Norman Shaw, this neo-classical beauty stood proudly on Piccadilly in Westminster, central London. With its towering pillars and intricate facade, it exuded elegance and sophistication. The photographer, Donald McLeish, skillfully captured the essence of this iconic building during the 1930s. The monochrome tones add a timeless quality to the image, allowing us to appreciate both its historical significance and enduring charm. During its heyday, the Piccadilly Hotel boasted an impressive staff count of 650 individuals who catered to every need of their esteemed guests. This bustling hub became synonymous with luxury and opulence in early 20th century Britain. Published in "Wonderful London" edited by Arthur St John Adcock, this print serves as a visual testament to London's rich architectural heritage. It transports us back in time to an era when craftsmanship was celebrated and attention to detail was paramount. Today, although no longer known as the Piccadilly Hotel but rather Le Meridien Piccadilly after several transformations over the years, it still stands tall as a landmark within Westminster's cityscape. This image reminds us of London's enduring allure and invites us to appreciate its architectural wonders that have stood steadfast through time.
