Photography - Loss in London
Brief:
Produce a piece of narrative photography
October 2009
Description:
1 photo from a series of 4
This central reservation road crossing, next to Marble Arch, was the site of the Tyburn Gallows, the place where up to, or maybe more than, 50 000 people met their maker.
It was one of the first public gallows to not only erect stands for the viewing public, but to charge them to watch the proceedings. Now next to the site ironically sits a cinema where people still go and pay for their entertainment.
