This print captures a breathtaking view across the bustling city of London, as seen from the remarkable 210 ft high tower of the new University of London building. The construction of this magnificent skyscraper in Bloomsbury is nearing completion, boasting an impressive 20 stories that make it the tallest building in all of London. The image showcases the architectural beauty and grandeur of this towering structure, constructed with brick on concrete piles. It provides a glimpse into a bygone era between the wars, offering us a unique perspective on Europe's evolving landscape during the twentieth century. Intriguingly, amidst this awe-inspiring scene, we can also spot builders fearlessly working at great heights on scaffolding. Their presence adds depth to our appreciation for both their craftsmanship and dedication to shaping London's ever-changing skyline. With its monochrome aesthetic and timeless appeal, this photograph transports us back in time to August 30th, 1937. As part of Planet News' press photography collection captured by TopFoto. co. uk (not affiliated with any commercial use), it serves as a visual testament to London's rich history and continuous growth throughout generations.
