EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to a significant moment in London's history. Taken on the 17th of August, 1927, it captures a bus turning into Constitution Hill, with a Guardsman standing tall on duty. This image holds great significance as it marks the first time heavy vehicles were granted permission to travel along the Mall due to ongoing roadworks in Piccadilly. The composition of this photograph is truly remarkable. The contrast between light and shadow creates an atmospheric effect that adds depth and drama to the scene. The crisp details allow us to appreciate every aspect of this historic moment - from the intricate design of the bus itself to the immaculate uniform worn by the Guardsman. As we gaze at this snapshot frozen in time, we can't help but marvel at how much has changed since then. It serves as a reminder of London's ever-evolving landscape and its continuous efforts towards progress and development. H. F Davis, through his lens, has captured not only an iconic image but also a piece of London's heritage. This print is more than just an aesthetic addition; it is a window into history that allows us to reflect upon our past while appreciating how far we have come.
