EDITORS COMMENTS
This image from the front cover of Eric Knight's WW2 story book, "This Above All," transports us back to a time of uncertainty and fear during the Second World War. The illustrated scene depicts a wartime couple standing on the edge of a cliff, their faces etched with worry as enemy raiders attack from above. The couple's body language speaks volumes about the tension and danger they are facing, with their eyes fixed anxiously on the skies above. The cliffs behind them serve as a stark reminder of the precariousness of their situation, surrounded by both natural beauty and man-made destruction. As we gaze upon this powerful image, we are reminded of the sacrifices made by countless individuals during this tumultuous period in history. The bravery and resilience shown by ordinary people caught up in extraordinary circumstances is truly humbling. Through artful storytelling and evocative imagery like this, we can gain a deeper understanding of the human experience during times of conflict. This print serves as a poignant reminder of our shared history and the importance of never forgetting those who lived through such challenging times.
