EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by George Greenwell captures a poignant moment in history during the height of World War II. The image showcases a London Transport double decker bus, frozen in time on St Pauls Churchyard as chaos unfolds around it. It was taken on the 29th of December, 1940, when over nine thousand incendiary and high explosive bombs rained down upon the City of London. The devastation caused by this relentless bombardment is evident in the background, with buildings reduced to rubble and smoke billowing into the sky. Amidst this destruction stands the iconic red double decker bus, serving as a symbol of resilience amidst adversity. This photograph offers us a glimpse into life on the home front during wartime. It highlights not only the bravery and determination of fire fighters battling against all odds but also underscores how public transport continued to function despite such dire circumstances. George Greenwell's skillful composition allows us to reflect upon one of history's darkest chapters while reminding us that even in times of great turmoil, everyday life must go on. This print serves as a powerful reminder of both human strength and our ability to find hope amidst unimaginable challenges.
