EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history during the Second World War, showcasing bricklaying at the Architectural Association School located in Mount House on Hadley Common, Barnet. The school served as a temporary home for the Architectural Association students who were evacuated from London during wartime.
In this image, young architects can be seen diligently studying and honing their craft amidst the chaos of war. The dedication and resilience of these students is truly inspiring, as they continue to pursue their education despite the challenging circumstances.
The architectural significance of Mount House is evident in this photograph, with its grand facade providing a striking backdrop to the scene of bricklaying taking place in front of it. This historic building served as a sanctuary for aspiring architects during a tumultuous time in history.
As we reflect on this snapshot from 1940, we are reminded of the importance of education and creativity even in times of crisis. The legacy of these brave evacuees lives on through their contributions to architecture and design.
This poignant image is a testament to the strength and determination of those who refused to let war stand in the way of their dreams.
