Henry Solomons on Kensington High Street, London, in 1973, with its neat striped awning and bold fascia advertising fresh fruit and vegetables. The shopfront is beautifully stocked, with oranges, apples and other produce set out beside buckets of daffodils and cut flowers on the pavement, while hand-written price cards fill the window. A policeman pauses to talk with an older man outside the display as shoppers pass by, adding an everyday street-life detail to the scene. Set beside the dark arched entrance of a neighbouring building, the shop captures the look of a traditional High Street greengrocer at a time when independent fruiterers like this were still a familiar part of London shopping streets.
