London Unseen by Paul Scane

Photographer Paul Scane was born in London and has dedicated the last few decades
entirely to his hometown. A unique photo collection of real, authentic London - off the beaten track.

Paul Scane was born in London and has dedicated his entire photographic career to his hometown in recent years. Armed only with his camera, he walked the streets of the British capital for days and weeks, always on the lookout for an exciting motif, an unusual sight, an expressive gesture, but also for bizarre events or unusual colours and shapes in the architecture. For Paul, London is a constant source of inspiration that brings new and unusual things to light every day - the place he knows best and at the same time rediscovers every day.

Mostly in black and white, a unique collection has emerged over the years that captures the character and soul of real London in more detail than perhaps any illustrated London book before it. Where many previously published volumes on the subject of London are primarily a journey in pictures along the tourist hotspots, "London Unseen" is the character study of a world metropolis - based on its people and streets, away from Big Ben and Trafalgar Square.

In short but concise texts, "London Unseen" provides an introduction to this unknown side of the British capital based on the photos and their stories.
