Description
Hanover Square

ENQUIRE FOR PRICE

This photograph by Duffy was taken in 1961. The bare trees reveal a very different W1 Hanover Square to how it is 50 years later. To the left, you can see the statue of William Pitt (The Younger) which still remains today. Once a highly desirable and exclusive Mayfair address, the square now comprises mostly of offices.

The models, wearing various evening dresses are stood opposite the Vogue head office at 1 Hanover Square. The offices were completed in 1958 and have been the publications UK headquarters since.

The image was used for a feature titled “Getting home with the milk” for British Vogue in June 1961. Photo Duffy © Duffy Archive
