EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Bond Street in Central London on a busy Friday in November 1934. The image, possibly captured from near 119 New Bond Street, offers a glimpse into the vibrant atmosphere of this iconic location during that era. In the top right corner, we can see the distinct outline of Fenwicks logo, a renowned clothing store that was an integral part of Bond Street's fashion scene. As we explore further, our eyes are drawn to an array of flags proudly fluttering above the street. These colorful decorations were put up to celebrate the upcoming wedding between Prince George, The Duke of Kent (son of King George V and Queen Mary), and Princess Marina of Greece and Denmark. This grand event was scheduled to take place at Westminster Abbey on November 29th. The photograph itself was taken on November 23rd, just six days before this momentous occasion. Amidst all the excitement surrounding the royal wedding preparations, pedestrians can be seen navigating through traffic while shoppers indulge in their retail therapy along this famous shopping destination. Tomlin's lens has frozen a precious slice of history for us to admire and reflect upon – capturing not only a snapshot in time but also encapsulating the spirit and essence of London's vibrant past.
