An extraordinary new photographic exhibition at London Bridge Railway Station 

By Henry Reichhold

A vibrant and colourful photographic exhibition has just opened at London Bridge Railway Station, celebrating the spectacular Platinum Jubilee Pageant.

Photographer Henry Reichhold has created two huge collages from over 800 images - the artworks showcase the huge range of events that made up the Pageant and capture the excitement of the day in exquisite detail and bold bright colours. 






Explore the images and discover the big events such as the Royal Family on the balcony, and singer Ed Sheeran on stage, or look deeper to uncover the many narratives that make up the artwork that tells the whole story. The exhibition can be seen at London Bridge Station Tooley St Overground exit, and will run until the 31st of August.
