This authentic 1960s colour photograph captures a relaxed summer scene at the centre of Piccadilly Circus in 1969. The viewpoint is positioned at street level, looking towards the Shaftesbury Memorial Fountain and the statue of Eros, which is surrounded by a large number of people sitting on the steps and leaning against the metal safety railings. In the background, the grand facade of the Swan & Edgar department store is visible. A red London double-decker bus and a classic black taxi with registration are seen navigating the busy intersection. The image is filled with pedestrians in typical late-sixties attire, including a young man in a red jacket and several others in patterned shirts, reflecting the casual atmosphere of the era. This digital download serves as a wonderful historical record of London’s social life at the close of the decade, perfect to print for yourself as a piece of vintage urban wall art.
