’NOW AND THEN’
This exhibition looks at two of London‘s most iconic river
views to get an idea of how they have changed over the last
25 years. The views from the Shell Tower and the the Golden
Gallery at St Paul’s Cathedral give an idea of how these
changes over time have affected the character of the city.
From the appearance of the London Eye in 2000, to the final
completion of the Shard in 2013, the most easily spotted
changes have been to the city’s skyline.
Shell Tower
The view from the top of the Shell Tower looks out over
the London Eye, Parliament and Battersea Power Station
as well as taking in three bridges and the north and south
embankments. At first glance when comparing the images taken
25 years apart very little seems to have changed. A closer look
reveals new buildings as well as those like Battersea Power Station
that have been repurposed while still maintaining the character
of the original design.
St Paul’s Cathedral
Well worth the long climb up the stairs, pick a quiet time
and take in the massive panorama laid out before you.
From Canary Wharf in the east to the Post Office Tower
in the west, this view takes in a good portion of London’s
notable landmarks. The 1999 image is notable in that the
London Eye and the Shard are both missing and that the
Millennium Bridge construction is still in progress.

Heathrow Airport Terminal 2 Airside
As people make their way into Henley Regatta’s Stewards enclosure they will come across a huge collage created from over 1,500 images, and on closer inspection they will quite likely find that they are probably in it.
Covering six days of the 2023 Regatta and taking over 7,000 images photo digital artist Henry Reichhold has put together an artwork packed with all the stories that make up this iconic UK sporting event.
The artwork is essentially a collection of stories all brought together into one epic, highly detailed image. Discover the classic ‘coxswain toss’, the trolley packed with champagne bottles, the festive pleasure boats and the rowers who race cheered on by the crowds lining the riverbank. Catch the prize giving, the packed grandstands and the leisurely strolling around the bandstand and take in the roar of a WW2 Lancaster bomber flying or the majestic Red Kite as it soars around the St Mary’s church tower.
The artwork is available for purchase at the Regatta’s official shops.
