EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1939, capturing an exterior view of St John the Evangelist church in Bexley, London. The image beautifully showcases the architectural grandeur of this historic building, standing tall amidst a bustling street scene from the interwar period. The spire and tower of St John's dominate the skyline, reaching towards the heavens with a sense of awe-inspiring grace. The surrounding road is filled with life as a man on his bicycle navigates through traffic while a vintage car passes by. A solitary tree stands nearby, providing shade and adding a touch of nature to this urban landscape. Photographer John Topham expertly captures this moment in time, freezing it forever in monochrome tones that enhance its timeless appeal. The photograph transports us to an era defined by elegance and resilience - Europe between two devastating world wars. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are reminded not only of the beauty found within places of worship but also of humanity's ability to endure even during tumultuous times. This print serves as both a visual testament to history and an invitation for contemplation about our own place within it.
