EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history during the tumultuous events of World War II. A group of excited evacuee schoolchildren, accompanied by their nurses, stand on the platform of Catford train station in south east London. The anticipation is palpable as they wait for their train to take them away from the dangers of war.
In the background, a barrage balloon looms overhead, a stark reminder of the wartime reality these children are facing. Despite the uncertainty and fear that surrounds them, there is an undeniable sense of excitement among the young evacuees as they embark on this journey to safety.
The image serves as a poignant reminder of the impact that war had on innocent lives, forcing families to make difficult decisions in order to protect their children. It also highlights the resilience and bravery shown by these young evacuees as they leave behind their homes and loved ones in search of refuge.
Mary Evans Picture Library has beautifully captured this historical moment, allowing us to reflect on the sacrifices made during wartime and appreciate the strength exhibited by those who lived through such challenging times.
