EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph captured by Alfieri in 1933, we are transported back to the bustling streets of Kensington. A shopping crowd, seemingly oblivious to the alluring window display behind them, has turned their attention towards something far more enchanting - the wedding procession of Hon James Lindsay and Hon Bronwen Scott-Ellis at St Mary Abbotts. The image beautifully encapsulates a moment frozen in time, as onlookers eagerly gather along the street to catch a glimpse of this grand event. The fashion of the era is on full display with men donning dapper suits and women adorned in elegant dresses and hats that epitomize 1930s style. Amidst the sea of spectators stands a lone policeman, his presence ensuring order amidst the excitement. His stoic stance serves as a reminder that even amidst joyous occasions like weddings, there is still a need for authority and security. Alfieri's monochrome composition adds an air of nostalgia to this snapshot from history. It transports us back to an era where life moved at a slower pace; where people took moments out of their busy lives to witness special events unfold before their eyes. This print captures not only a wedding procession but also offers us glimpses into society during that time period - its fashion trends, architectural styles, and even hints at how people found entertainment before our modern distractions took hold.
