EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Norfolk House, a grand architectural masterpiece that stood proudly on 31 St James's Square in London. Built in 1722 for the esteemed Duke of Norfolk, this magnificent house exuded elegance and sophistication. However, its fate was sealed as it faced demolition in 1938. The image captures a snapshot of life in the bustling city during the late 1930s. The streets are filled with people going about their daily routines, while cars line up along the road adding to the vibrant atmosphere. Sunlight bathes the scene, casting long shadows on the buildings and illuminating every detail. Norfolk House's facade stands tall against this backdrop, showcasing its regal charm and historical significance. Its architecture reflects both eighteenth-century opulence and twentieth-century progressiveness. As we gaze upon this photograph today, we are transported back to an era where horse-drawn carriages shared lanes with motor vehicles. It is a reminder of how transportation has evolved over time and how cities like London have adapted to accommodate these changes. This print serves as a valuable piece of history captured by Studio Publications' Volume 117 collection. It allows us to appreciate not only Norfolk House but also the rich cultural heritage embedded within London's landscape throughout different centuries.
