Police at Horse Guards, Whitehall, London, in 1972, photographed from inside the gates looking out towards Whitehall and the busy pavement beyond. Two Metropolitan Police officers in traditional dark capes and custodian helmets stand in the foreground, while two policewomen in capes and skirts are visible by the gate behind them, creating a striking period study of London policing in ceremonial surroundings. Beyond the ornate railings and gates, the statue of the 2nd Duke of Cambridge can be seen on Whitehall, with the pale stone lion beyond and government buildings framing the background. The mix of uniforms, pedestrians and formal architecture makes this a particularly evocative early-1970s Westminster scene.
