EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intricate details of the Quadriga Statue, located at Wellington Arch in Hyde Park Corner, Westminster, London. The main focus of this image is one of a series showcasing the conservation work being carried out on the statue's face. The Quadriga Statue itself stands as a magnificent symbol of power and triumph, depicting a chariot drawn by four horses driven by Victory. Its grandeur and historical significance make it an iconic landmark within the bustling cityscape. In this particular shot, Derek Kendall skillfully highlights the emotion etched onto the statue's face through his lens. The weathered features tell tales of time gone by while also revealing traces of ongoing restoration efforts to preserve its splendor for future generations. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded not only of London's rich history but also of our responsibility to protect and cherish these cultural treasures. It serves as a poignant reminder that art transcends time and connects us with those who came before us. DEREK KENDALL's expert eye has masterfully captured both the beauty and fragility inherent in this sculpture. Through his lens, he invites us to appreciate every detail - from chipped stone to delicate expression - encouraging us to reflect on our own place within history's narrative.
