This authentic 1960s colour photograph captures the bohemian street culture of Portobello Road in 1969, specifically outside the shop at number 117. A young busker with long hair sits on a wooden crate, focused on playing his acoustic guitar with his instrument case open on the pavement to collect change. A diverse group of onlookers has gathered to listen, showcasing the eclectic fashion of the late sixties, including a man in a blue paisley-patterned shirt and a woman in a vibrant floral-print coat. To the left, a young girl in a sleeveless blue mod-style dress stands near a pale yellow Ford Thames 400E van. This digital download is an evocative record of London’s social and musical history, perfect to print for yourself as a piece of vintage wall art.
