EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to a simpler time, December 1941. Three young girls, bundled up in coats and scarves, are preparing to embark on an adventure. As they mount their bikes, their mother stands at the gate of their rural home, waving them off with a mix of pride and concern etched across her face. The scene is set against a backdrop of a charming country lane lined with wooden fences. The winter landscape is evident as patches of mud mingle with puddles along the path. The air is crisp and chilly, but the girls seem undeterred by the weather as they pedal away. Their hoods pulled tightly over their heads suggest that this journey might be more than just a casual ride through the countryside. Perhaps they are heading to school or running errands for their family on this frosty morning. In the distance, we catch glimpses of farm buildings and even chickens roaming freely nearby - reminders of the rural setting these girls call home. This evocative image captures not only a moment frozen in time but also reflects the resilience and determination so prevalent during wartime Britain in the 1940s. It serves as a poignant reminder that life goes on even amidst uncertainty and challenges.
