EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the charming town of Reading, Berkshire in 1935. The focal point of this historic snapshot is the magnificent Church of St Lawrence, standing tall and proud against the backdrop of the Town Hall and Clock Tower. The image exudes a sense of nostalgia as it transports us to a bygone era, allowing us to glimpse into the past. The architectural beauty of St Lawrence's Church is evident in its intricate details and towering spire that reaches towards the heavens. Its presence dominates the scene, symbolizing faith and community at the heart of this English town. Meanwhile, nestled behind it stands the grand Town Hall with its majestic clock tower, adding an air of importance and civic pride. The monochromatic tones enhance our perception of timelessness, emphasizing how these structures have stood strong for decades. This photograph invites contemplation on how life must have been during those simpler times – when horse-drawn carriages roamed these streets instead of cars; when people gathered at church every Sunday; when Reading had a distinct charm that has endured through generations. Anthony Wallace's skillful capture allows us to appreciate both architectural marvels while also evoking emotions tied to history and heritage. It serves as a reminder that even amidst progress and change, there are elements worth preserving from our past - glimpses into moments frozen in time like this one from 1935 Reading.
