EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Alisdair MacDonald, we are transported back to the winter of 1970 in Piccadilly Circus, London. The iconic statue of Eros stands tall amidst a breathtaking scene - covered entirely in glistening ice after a chilly Christmas. As the festive season unfolded, nature decided to gift the city with an extraordinary sight. A rare combination of freezing temperatures and precipitation transformed this beloved landmark into a frozen masterpiece. Every delicate curve and intricate detail of Eros' form is now adorned with a sparkling layer of ice crystals. The image captures the essence of winter's enchantment, evoking feelings of awe and wonder. It serves as a reminder that even in bustling urban centers like Piccadilly Circus, nature can still surprise us with its beauty and power. This photograph transports us to that specific moment in time when Londoners marveled at the icy transformation before them. It encapsulates both the magic and challenges that come hand-in-hand during wintertime – from cozy celebrations indoors to braving the elements outside. MacDonald's skillful composition allows us to appreciate not only the grandeur of Eros but also highlights how weather can transform familiar landmarks into something truly extraordinary. This print is more than just an image; it is a testament to our enduring fascination with seasonal changes and their ability to captivate our hearts year after year.
