Photograph by Bruno Benini.
In the photograph Bruno Benini's assistant walks along the footpath in front of the shop.

If Bruno Benini particularly liked a shot he would make a print or as Hazel Benini recalled 'create a blow-up and then put it up on his studio wall'. The walls of the studio were covered with these 20 x 24 inch prints. Unfortunately, some of these prints were damaged over the years and thrown out. In her private file of personal shots Hazel Benini has some photographs showing these studio walls. The archive also contains some references to this wall.
