EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting photograph captures the magical allure of Langham Place in London during the Edwardian era, circa 1910. The night sky is illuminated by the twinkling lights of the city, casting an ethereal glow over the bustling streets below. At the heart of the scene, the spires of All Souls Church and St. George's Hall stand proudly against the backdrop of the evening sky. To the left, the majestic spire of All Souls Church reaches towards the heavens, its intricate details accentuated by the soft glow of the street lamps. The church, with its rich history and connection to the spiritual, adds an air of mystery to the scene. Moving to the right, the Queens Hall and St. George's Hall come into view. The Queens Hall, a popular venue for concerts and performances, is adorned with flags and banners, signaling the excitement of an upcoming event. St. George's Hall, known as England's Home of Mystery, is where the renowned magician John Nevil Maskelyne would captivate audiences with his illusions and sleight of hand. The hustle and bustle of traffic on the road adds to the vibrant energy of the scene, with cars and carriages making their way through the streets. The statue on the plinth, bathed in the soft glow of the streetlights, stands as a silent observer to the magic unfolding around it. This photograph is a captivating snapshot of a bygone era, a time when the streets of London were alive with wonder and mystery, and the magic of the stage was a source of endless fascination for all who attended.
