Piccadilly Circus, London, 1973. This classic early-1970s view looks across the Shaftesbury Memorial Fountain, with the figure popularly known as Eros rising above Westminster’s bronze-painted railings and globe-topped lamp standards. Behind the fountain, the London Pavilion is advertising Live and Let Die with large panels for Roger Moore as James Bond, while to the left can be seen parts of the familiar Gordon’s Gin and Carry the big fresh flavour signs. Two red London Transport double-deckers pass through the junction, helping to fix the scene firmly in the period. It is a strong Piccadilly Circus image from the years before the later rebuilding of the advertising corner, with theatre-scale film promotion, heavy traffic and the crowded visual clutter that long defined the junction.
