EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "London at night: Cottage Place, Brompton" takes us back to the enchanting streets of 1930s London. The image, captured by Harold Burdekin, showcases the timeless beauty of a nocturnal cityscape. In this particular scene, we are transported to Cottage Place in Brompton, where the atmosphere is steeped in mystery and intrigue. The dimly lit street exudes an air of secrecy as shadows dance along the cobblestones. The flickering street lamps cast a soft glow on the facades of charming cottages that line the road. One building that catches our eye is "The Blue Dog" pub with its inviting warm light pouring out from within. It stands as a beacon amidst the darkness, offering solace and camaraderie to weary souls seeking respite from their daily struggles. Burdekin's masterful use of gravure printing adds depth and texture to this evocative image, enhancing its nostalgic appeal. This photograph was originally created as an illustration for John Morrison and Harold Burdekin's book "London Night" published in 1934. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing snapshot frozen in time, we can't help but be transported back to an era when London came alive under the cloak of nightfall. It serves as a testament to both history and artistry - capturing not only a specific place but also encapsulating an entire era filled with stories waiting to be told.
