EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures Sally Becker, a British Aid Worker, returning to Mostar's war hospital in August 1993. It was her second visit in just two weeks. At the age of 33, this remarkable artist from Hove in Sussex had already gained fame as the Angel of Mostar for her courageous acts during the Bosnian conflict. Sally fearlessly maneuvered through constant sniper fire, driving her battered London ambulance deep into the heart of the battle-torn city. Her sole mission was to rescue wounded children who were trapped and desperate for help. With unwavering determination and selflessness, she single-handedly carried out these mercy missions despite angering the United Nations with her actions. The image encapsulates both strength and vulnerability as Sally stands amidst a backdrop of destruction caused by war. The intensity in her eyes reflects not only her dedication but also the immense challenges she faced on a daily basis. Ian Derry's photograph serves as a poignant reminder of those tumultuous times in Bosnia and Herzegovina during the 1990s. It symbolizes hope amid despair and showcases one individual's extraordinary efforts to make a difference amidst chaos. This print is an invaluable piece of history that honors Sally Becker's bravery while shedding light on the devastating consequences of war and conflict.
