Orignal Caption: The King and Queen visited, again, the bombed areas of London
yesterday. They saw little homes blasted out of occupation. And once, while the King was being told how damage had been caused, the Queen wandered a few steps alone...to a spot where another woman and mother once had a home....And there she stood, silent and sad 19th September 1940

EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant print captures a significant moment during the Blitz of London in 1940. Queen Elizabeth and King George VI, determined to show their support for the people affected by the devastating bombings, embarked on a tour of bomb sites. The original caption aptly describes their visit as they witnessed firsthand the destruction caused by relentless attacks. In this particular scene, Queen Elizabeth is seen deep in thought, standing alone at a spot where another woman's home once stood. As she gazes upon the remnants of what was once someone's cherished abode, her expression reflects both sadness and contemplation. It is a powerful reminder of the immense loss experienced by countless families during this tumultuous time. The photograph not only showcases royalty amidst war but also highlights their empathy towards ordinary citizens who suffered greatly during World War II. Their presence amidst such devastation symbolizes unity and resilience in the face of adversity. George Greenwell skillfully captured this emotional moment that encapsulates an era marked by conflict and destruction. This historical image serves as a testament to the strength and compassion exhibited by Queen Elizabeth and King George VI as they supported their nation through one of its darkest hours.
