Trafalgar Square, looking towards Grand Buildings (South Africa House on the left, Christmas Tree gifted by Norway on the left). London, 1950
On a wet evening in London’s Trafalgar Square in 1950, the ground glistens with reflected light. Crowds gather around the massive Christmas tree—an annual gift from Norway—which stands near South Africa House. A man in a fedora walks through the bustling scene, framed by the dark basin of a fountain and the glowing neon signs for Philips, Nicholson gin, and Moussec that adorn the facade of Grand Buildings in the background.
