EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Buckled Bike" renowned photographer Carl Sutton takes us back to the bustling streets of 1950s Britain. The image captures a haunting scene on the Kingston Bypass, where a wrecked bicycle lies abandoned, its twisted frame bearing witness to an unfortunate accident. Sutton's unique approach to landscape photography is evident in this composition. Instead of focusing on sweeping vistas or picturesque scenery, he turns his lens towards the aftermath of an incident that speaks volumes about society at the time. The angle chosen by Sutton adds depth and intrigue to the shot, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in every detail. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of what was dubbed "The Menace Of The Boy Cyclist" during that era. It sheds light on the dangers faced by young cyclists navigating busy roads without proper training or awareness. Through his lens, Sutton captures not only a physical wreckage but also hints at deeper societal issues surrounding road safety. With its timeless quality and evocative atmosphere, "Buckled Bike" transports us back in time while raising questions about progress made since then. This thought-provoking piece from Fine Art Storehouse invites contemplation on how far we have come in ensuring safer journeys for all who share our roads today.
