EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this evocative photograph from the 1950s, showcasing the Esso Petroleum Refinery at Fawley, Hampshire. The image captures the industrial grandeur of the era, with its towering chimneys and gleaming dome, surrounded by a mirrored landscape of car bodies. The reflection on the polished automobiles creates an intriguing juxtaposition between the modernity of the vehicles and the heavy industry behind them. The Jaguar and other cars, with their shiny surfaces, seem to merge with the refinery, as if becoming one with the machinery that powers them. The photograph, taken in 1959, is a testament to the role of the automobile in post-war Britain and the importance of the oil industry in supplying the nation's transportation needs. The Esso Petroleum Refinery at Fawley was a symbol of progress and prosperity, producing fuel for the growing number of cars on the road. This image, from The Colin Sherborne Collection/Mary Evans Picture Library, is a stunning example of vintage advertising photography. The composition, lighting, and reflections all come together to create a captivating and timeless image. Whether you're a fan of vintage advertising, industrial photography, or just love the look of shiny cars, this photograph is sure to be a conversation starter and a beautiful addition to any home or office.
