This haunting print captures the aftermath of a devastating event during World War Two - the bombing of Mill Road Infirmary in Liverpool. The maternity ward, once filled with hope and anticipation, now stands as a grim reminder of the horrors of war. On that fateful day, May 3rd, 1941, tragedy struck when a bomb landed directly in the hospital's courtyard. The impact was catastrophic, claiming the lives of numerous mothers and their precious newborn babies. The scene depicted in this photograph is one of unimaginable destruction and heartbreak. Taken on May 4th, just hours after the attack, this image serves as an indelible testament to the resilience and strength displayed by those who survived such atrocities.
