EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing spiral staircase within the iconic Pyramid House in Finchley, London. Taken by renowned photographer John Gay between 1966 and 1975, this image offers a unique glimpse into the interior of this architectural gem. The glazed, spiral stair turret takes center stage as it gracefully winds its way downwards. The intricate design of the staircase is truly awe-inspiring, with each step forming a perfect curve that seems to defy gravity. The play of light and shadow adds depth to the composition, enhancing the overall visual appeal. As we gaze at this photograph, we are transported back in time to an era when craftsmanship and attention to detail were paramount. This image serves as a testament to both the skill of the architect who conceptualized such an extraordinary structure and John Gay's ability to capture its essence through his lens. The Pyramid House itself stands as a symbol of architectural innovation and creativity. Its unique shape sets it apart from traditional buildings, making it instantly recognizable among London's skyline. This photograph not only documents an interior view but also invites us on a journey through history, allowing us to appreciate both the beauty of design and the passage of time. In preserving this moment frozen in silver gelatin print form, Historic England ensures that future generations can marvel at this remarkable feat of architecture captured by one talented photographer - John Gay
