EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the 1940s with this charming illustration from a wartime children's short story, "There Mid The Quiet Hills." Capturing a moment of peace and joy amidst the chaos of World War II, we see a young man and woman enjoying a day of fishing in the tranquil countryside. The rolling hills provide a serene backdrop as they cast their lines into the sparkling water, lost in conversation and laughter.
The unattributed artwork perfectly encapsulates the innocence and simplicity of youth during such tumultuous times. It serves as a reminder that even in the darkest moments, there is still beauty to be found in nature and human connection.
As we gaze upon this scene, we are transported to a world where worries fade away and all that matters is the present moment. It is a poignant reminder of the resilience and strength of ordinary people during extraordinary circumstances.
This print from Mary Evans Prints Online's March of Women Collection not only showcases artistic talent but also preserves an important piece of history. Let it serve as a tribute to all those who found solace and happiness amid the turmoil of war.
