EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the haunting crime scene of the infamous Mr Skinner assault case in Erith, London, 1938. The image transports us to a different era, capturing the essence of a chilling moment frozen in time. The monochrome tones add an air of mystery and intrigue, intensifying our curiosity about what transpired within those walls. Through John Topham's lens, we are presented with a window into history that is both unsettling and fascinating. As we study the photograph closely, we notice shards of broken glass scattered on the ground beneath a shattered window pane. It becomes evident that violence has erupted within these premises; something terrible has occurred here. The absence of color allows our imagination to fill in the gaps as we contemplate who might have been involved and what their motives could have been. We can almost feel the tension lingering in the air as if it were still present all these years later. Topham's skillful composition draws our attention to every detail - from the cracked door frame to subtle clues left behind at this eerie crime scene. This evocative image serves as a reminder that even decades later, photographs possess an uncanny ability to transport us back in time and immerse us in gripping narratives from our pasts.
