This black-and-white photo records a demolition site in London. Taken in October 1897, it shows what’s left of old brick boilers near the Brompton neighborhood. The photo wasn’t meant to be art first. It was kept by the National Art Library to teach architecture and design students. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum for more photos like this one.
