This authentic 1960s colour photograph captures the imposing scale of Marble Arch and its surrounding landmarks during the summer of 1960. The triumphal arch, designed by John Nash, stands at the junction of Oxford Street, Park Lane, and Edgware Road, framed by the grand Portland stone facades of the period. To the left, the prominent orange neon sign of the Odeon cinema is visible, while the right side is dominated by the sprawling Cumberland Hotel. The scene is bustling with early sixties life, featuring two classic red double-decker buses, a cyclist crossing the foreground, and several vintage cars. Lush green trees soften the urban landscape, and pedestrians in summer attire, such as a woman in a crisp white dress, add a sense of movement to this historic London gateway. This digital download is a magnificent record of the capital’s architectural heritage, perfect to print for yourself as a piece of classic city wall art.
