EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Zack Alexander, we are transported to the vibrant world of the Pearly Kings and Queens. The image captures two iconic figures - the Pearly King of Smithfield Market and the Pearly Queen of Merton - at the highly anticipated Pearly King and Queen second Harvest Festival held at St. Pauls Church in Covent Garden. Dressed in their elaborate costumes adorned with countless shimmering pearl buttons, these charismatic individuals embody a rich tradition that dates back to Victorian London. Their presence at this church service is not only a testament to their unwavering commitment to charity but also a celebration of community spirit. As our eyes wander through the frame, we can't help but be enchanted by every intricate detail on their outfits, each button representing an act of kindness or donation made towards charitable causes. It is truly remarkable how such humble origins have transformed into a powerful force for good over time. Zack Alexander's expert composition allows us to feel as though we are right there amidst the crowd, witnessing this extraordinary event firsthand. Through his lens, he has captured not just an image but also a story - one that speaks volumes about unity, compassion, and the enduring power of tradition. This print serves as a reminder that sometimes it takes just one person or group with boundless determination to make a difference in society. And here they stand before us – proud representatives of an age-old legacy dedicated to helping those less fortunate.
