EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Elephant Eye View" offers a mesmerizing aerial perspective of the Elephant and Castle new development in Southwark, London. Taken on April 11,1967, this image showcases the bustling cityscape with remarkable clarity. In this snapshot, several iconic buildings can be identified. The Metropolitan Tabernacle stands prominently in the foreground on the left, while the towered block of The London School of Printing and Graphic Arts looms elegantly in the background. The entrance to Bakerloo Underground Station is captured at center background, accompanied by boarding alongside it. To its right lies the cube-shaped Northern Line Underground Station. The composition also includes two public houses situated at center foreground, their dark-topped structures adding depth to the scene. A Shopping Centre occupies a prominent spot on the right side of the frame with an office block towering behind it. Notably standing tall among these buildings is Alexander Fleming House - a striking skyscraper block that adds grandeur to this evolving urban landscape. As our gaze extends beyond these architectural marvels, we catch sight of St Paul's Cathedral's majestic dome peeking over distant chimneys in City Road. Leading us further into this vibrant metropolis is Walworth Road stretching out before us. This extraordinary photograph captures both history and progress as it immortalizes a moment frozen in time - showcasing London's ever-evolving skyline against a backdrop of urban transformation.
