EDITORS COMMENTS
**A Glimpse of London's Past: St. Mary le Strand in 1916**
This stunning print by renowned artist Francis Dodd captures a moment in time at St. Mary le Strand, a beautiful Grade I listed church designed by James Gibbs and built in the early 18th century. The photograph, taken in 1916, offers a unique glimpse into daily life on London's streets during World War I.
The image is bustling with activity as people go about their day-to-day business amidst the backdrop of war-torn Britain. A horse-drawn cart makes its way down the street, while scaffolding surrounds parts of the church, hinting at ongoing restoration work. The stark contrast between the historic architecture and modern transportation adds a sense of nostalgia to this scene.
Dodd's masterful use of photography brings out every detail in his composition, from the intricate stonework on St. Mary le Strand's facade to the everyday people going about their lives. This print is not only a testament to Dodd's skill as an artist but also a poignant reminder of life during wartime.
This rare glimpse into London's past serves as a powerful connection to its rich history and heritage, making it a treasured addition to any collection or art lover's home.
