EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by John Ferguson, we are transported back to May 1999 at The Mirror Pride of Britain Awards. The image beautifully portrays the moment when two influential figures, Tony Blair MP and Michael Owen, share a firm handshake. The photograph exudes an air of significance and camaraderie as these prominent personalities come together on this prestigious occasion. Tony Blair, then serving as the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, stands tall in his distinguished attire while extending his hand towards Michael Owen - a renowned footballer who had recently made waves with his exceptional skills. Their handshake symbolizes not only their mutual respect but also represents a powerful connection between politics and sports. It serves as a reminder that even in different realms of influence, great individuals can find common ground through shared values and aspirations. This snapshot from the late 90s encapsulates an era marked by optimism and progress. As we gaze upon it today, it evokes nostalgia for a time when these two figures were at the forefront of public attention - one leading the nation's affairs while the other capturing hearts on football fields across England. John Ferguson's skillful lens captures not just an ordinary encounter but rather freezes in time a remarkable moment where politics meets sportsmanship. This print is truly a testament to historical events that shaped our society during that transformative period in British history.
