The image is a testament to the government's evacuation efforts during the war, which saw over three million children evacuated from urban areas to escape the threat of bombing raids. The poster-like image bears the advice, "Government advice recommending children stay away from the big cities and targets of the bombers." The children, dressed in their best clothes and carrying their belongings, seem to be leaving their urban homes for the safety and security of the countryside.
