Background information, content

A few days before christmas 1949, the young Swiss photographer René GROEBLI arrived at Victoria Station in fog-bound, bombed-out London. For two weeks he wandered aimlessly around the city with his rolleiflex camera. The result is compiled in this edition with high-quality tri-tone offset printed images. The 2nd part of 'London 1949' contains a series of images shot at London's Crystal Palace Park in 1951.
