A spectacular sequel to Philip Davis’s Lost London, this lavish landscape-format book reproduces historic photographs commissioned by the London County Council many of them in the early days of photography to capture individual buildings and streets that, along with entire neighborhoods, were on the threshold of redevelopment.
Enlarging Lost London’s finest photographs reveals a wealth of hidden detail in these historic pictures long gone street panoramas, often with haunting faces from the forgotten past live again, hoardings and shopfronts reveal their wares while architectural features and textures leap into focus.
A must for architecture and photography buffs.
