EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enchanting allure of London at night. The focal point of the image is a magnificent statue of Boadicea, standing tall and proud against the backdrop of the iconic Big Ben. The contrast between light and darkness creates a mesmerizing atmosphere, as the city's nocturnal lighting casts an ethereal glow on these historic landmarks. The photograph was taken by Harold Burdekin in the 1930s for his book "London Night" co-authored with John Morrison. It showcases their artistic vision and appreciation for capturing London's rich history and architectural beauty. Boadicea, also known as Boudicca, was a legendary warrior queen who led an uprising against Roman forces in ancient Britain. Her statue stands as a symbol of strength and resilience amidst this bustling metropolis. Big Ben, one of London's most recognizable landmarks, adds to the grandeur of this scene. Its towering presence evokes a sense of timelessness that transcends centuries. This stunning print is part of a private collection but has been made available through Look and Learn. It serves as both a historical document and an exquisite piece of art that transports viewers back to the vibrant nightscape of 1930s London.
