View down Whitehall, London
A view down Whitehall, London past the Equestrian statue of Prince George, Duke of Cambridge (by Adrian Jones) toward Trafalgar Square and Nelson's Column. A rather under-sized London omnibus has been added to the scene lower left, although rather humorously not to scale!! Date: 1915

EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to 1915 with this print of a view down Whitehall, London. The scene is bustling with activity as pedestrians stroll along the sidewalk, cars and buses navigate the streets, and the iconic Equestrian statue of Prince George, Duke of Cambridge stands tall in the distance.
One humorous detail that catches the eye is an under-sized London omnibus placed incongruously in the lower left corner of the image. It seems almost comically out of place compared to its surroundings, adding a touch of whimsy to an otherwise ordinary street scene.
As you gaze down Whitehall towards Trafalgar Square and Nelson's Column, you can almost feel yourself transported back to a bygone era. The architecture, the fashion, even the way people move about all evoke a sense of nostalgia for a time long past.
This print by Grenville Collins captures not just a moment in history but an entire atmosphere - one filled with life and energy despite being frozen in time. It serves as a reminder that even as years pass and technology advances, some things remain constant - like the beauty and charm of central London on a busy day in 1915.
