EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the awe-inspiring interior of the Royal College of Physicians, a true masterpiece in brutalist architecture. Located in St Andrews Place, Regents Park, Camden, Greater London, this iconic building was constructed between 1960-64 and later extended from 1995-6 by Denys Lasdun and Partners. The photograph focuses on the grandeur of the foyer area, showcasing its striking concrete design that epitomizes the post-war era. The sheer scale and raw beauty of this space are truly mesmerizing. The imposing staircase takes center stage as it gracefully ascends towards an unknown destination. Its clean lines and geometric shapes perfectly embody the brutalist style while exuding a sense of strength and solidity. Listed as Grade I by Historic England, this architectural gem stands as a testament to Britain's rich history and cultural heritage. It is a place where knowledge meets innovation; where physicians have gathered for decades to advance medical science and improve patient care. James O. Davies' expert lens has captured not just an image but also a feeling - one that evokes admiration for both past achievements and future possibilities within these walls. This print serves as a reminder that great architecture transcends time; it continues to inspire generations with its timeless elegance even decades after its creation.
