EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Kings Bench Walk, 1930s" takes us on a nostalgic journey to the heart of Inner Temple in the City of London. The image beautifully captures a slice of life from an era long gone by. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, our eyes are drawn to the grandeur and elegance exuded by the barristers' chambers lining Kings Bench Walk. The scene comes alive with two young girls dressed in their school uniforms strolling past numbers 3-6. Their presence adds a touch of innocence and youthfulness amidst the solemnity of legal offices that surround them. It's as if they have stumbled into another world entirely, one filled with towering buildings steeped in history. The photograph showcases not only architectural marvels but also elements unique to its time period. The railings along Kings Bench Walk stand tall and proud, separating pedestrians from bustling traffic while adding an air of sophistication to the surroundings. Cobbled streets beneath their feet tell tales of countless footsteps taken over decades. Charles William Prickett's lens has masterfully captured this moment, preserving it for generations to come. Through his artistry, he invites us to step back into an enchanting era where legal minds worked tirelessly within these hallowed walls while school children innocently roamed nearby. This print is more than just a glimpse into history; it is a testament to the enduring beauty found within everyday scenes that often go unnoticed or forgotten over time.
