EDITORS COMMENTS
captures the enchanting allure and vibrant energy of 1920s London at night. This photo print, published in 1926 by Donald Maxwell, takes us on a mesmerizing journey through the city's bustling streets illuminated by electric lights. In this scene, Piccadilly Circus stands as a majestic landmark with its iconic fountain adorned with statues of Eros and Anteros. As rain falls gently from the sky, umbrellas dot the streetscape like colorful blossoms in bloom. Pedestrians brave the wet weather, their silhouettes creating an atmospheric ambiance against the backdrop of dazzling lights. The image beautifully showcases how London comes alive after dusk, transforming into a magical realm where architecture merges with artistry. The cityscape is bathed in a soft glow that enhances every architectural detail and accentuates the charm of its historical buildings. Transportation plays a vital role in this nocturnal symphony; buses glide gracefully through slick roads while adding to the rhythm and movement of urban life. Each element harmoniously blends together to create an unforgettable visual experience that encapsulates both nostalgia for a bygone era and admiration for London's timeless beauty. This print serves as a testament to Maxwell's skillful composition and his ability to capture not only physical structures but also emotions evoked by such scenes. It invites viewers to immerse themselves in this moment frozen in time - an invitation to explore "The New Lights o London" and revel
