EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the iconic Piccadilly Circus at night in London during the 1960s. The image captures a significant moment in history, as it shows the scene where the Advertising Association had switched off their electric sign displays until 8pm as a tribute to John F Kennedy, who was tragically assassinated on November 22nd. The bustling streets of central London come alive with cars gracefully maneuvering around the famous statue of Eros. The vibrant atmosphere is enhanced by the glow of streetlights and illuminated signs that line this renowned intersection. It's a snapshot frozen in time, showcasing both the energy and elegance that define this beloved city. Taken on November 25th, just days after Kennedy's assassination, this photograph serves as a poignant reminder of how deeply his loss impacted people across continents. Amidst such sorrowful news, life continues its course with traffic flowing through Piccadilly Circus while underground trains shuttle commuters beneath these historic streets. Alisdair MacDonald skillfully captured this timeless moment from Memory Lane Prints collection. As we gaze upon this evocative image today, it transports us back to an era when advertising held its breath for an evening in honor of one man's untimely passing – forever etching itself into London's rich tapestry of history.
