EDITORS COMMENTS
. Step back in time with this print by Bernard Alfieri, transporting you to a bustling morning at Kingston Station in November 1938. As you gaze upon the image, you can almost feel the energy and anticipation radiating from the commuters and schoolchildren gathered on platform three. In their timeless attire, men donning suits and hats while women elegantly flaunt their fashionable dresses, this snapshot encapsulates an era where style was paramount even during daily commutes. The children's uniforms add a touch of innocence amidst the flurry of activity. The station itself is adorned with vibrant posters showcasing advertisements that reflect the spirit of 20th-century England – a reminder of how advertising has always been intertwined with our everyday lives. Signs directing passengers towards different platforms hint at a well-organized transport system that kept Londoners moving efficiently. This photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to the importance of public transportation throughout history. It reminds us that regardless of social status or age, we are all united by our need to travel and explore new horizons. Bernard Alfieri's keen eye for detail allows us to step into this scene from nearly eight decades ago, providing us with an invaluable glimpse into London's past. Let this remarkable piece take you on a journey through time as it proudly adorns
