EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Bright Lights (1939)" photographer Stanley Sherman captures the vibrant energy of London's Charing Cross area in Trafalgar Square. Neon signs illuminate the buildings, creating a dazzling spectacle against the night sky. The silhouette of one of Landseer's iconic lions stands proudly in the foreground, adding a touch of grandeur to the scene. Sherman skillfully plays with contrast and composition, using the lion sculpture as a striking focal point against the backdrop of illuminated advertisements. The bold slogans and mesmerizing neon lighting create an atmosphere that is both nostalgic and timeless. This photograph transports viewers back to 1939, offering a glimpse into London's bustling streets during a bygone era. It serves as a reminder of how advertising has evolved over time while also highlighting its enduring presence in our urban landscapes. The choice to present this image in black and white enhances its dramatic impact, emphasizing the interplay between light and shadow. Sherman's masterful technique allows us to appreciate every intricate detail within this cityscape. "Bright Lights (1939)" is not just an ordinary photograph; it is an artistic representation that encapsulates history, culture, and human ingenuity through its portrayal of neon lights, architecture, sculpture, and signage.
