EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to a significant moment in history - the year is 1962, and we find ourselves standing on the bustling streets of Liverpool. The misty atmosphere adds an air of mystery as we take in the iconic sights that define this vibrant city. On the left stands the majestic Royal Liver Building, a symbol of Liverpool's rich architectural heritage.

To its right looms another masterpiece - the Cunard building, constructed between 1914 and 1916. These two structures together form part of what locals affectionately call "The Three Graces". As our gaze extends beyond these magnificent landmarks, we observe a snapshot of daily life during this era. Buses traverse through busy streets while people go about their routines against a backdrop that showcases both urban development and historical charm. However, it is impossible to ignore one somber aspect captured within this image - unemployment. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder that even amidst progress and architectural splendor, there were individuals facing economic hardships during this time. Owens' lens has frozen this moment forever; allowing us to reflect upon both the beauty and challenges that shaped Liverpool's past. It serves as an evocative testament to resilience in
