EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from 1988, English entrepreneur Peter John de Savary exudes an air of wealth and sophistication as he gazes out into the distance, his piercing blue eyes hidden behind a pair of stylish glasses with gold frames. De Savary, born in 1944, was a prominent figure in the business world during the 1980s, a decade known for its excesses and conspicuous consumption. At the time this image was taken, he had made headlines by becoming the owner of both Lands End and John o' Groats, the westernmost and easternmost points of mainland Great Britain, respectively. De Savary's nautical attire, complete with a navy blazer, white collared shirt, and red and white striped tie, adds to his naval and sinister appearance. His beard, neatly trimmed and well-groomed, frames his angular face, while a cap adorned with a distinctive badge sits atop his head. The image captures a moment in history, a snapshot of a man who embodied the spirit of the 1980s, a time of wealth creation and ambition. Despite the opulence on display, there is an undercurrent of mystery and intrigue in the photograph. De Savary's intense gaze and the moody, overcast sky create an atmosphere of quiet contemplation, as if he is lost in thought, pondering the future and the possibilities it holds. This photograph is a testament to the enduring allure of the entrepreneurial spirit and the fascination with the wealthy and powerful figures who embody it.
