EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the approach to London Bridge in September 1940, in the aftermath of a German bombing attack during World War II. The devastation wrought by the bombs is evident in the ruins of buildings and the scattered rubble that lines the streets. Despite the destruction, civilians are making their way to work, their determination and resilience shining through the grim reality of the situation. The image is a poignant reminder of the Blitz, a period of intense bombing campaigns by the German Air Force against the United Kingdom during the Second World War. The vintage feel of the photograph, with its grainy texture and engraving-like quality, adds to the historical significance of the moment. This image, from The War in Pictures, Sixth Year, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of conflict and uncertainty. The 20th century was marked by numerous historical events, and this photograph is a testament to the indomitable spirit of those who lived through them.
