EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures a historic moment in London's Trafalgar Square on the 10th of September, 1961. The image showcases a group of determined women sitting at the base of Nelson's Column during a CND Ban the Bomb demonstration. Among them are notable figures such as Diana Collins and Constance Cummings, both speakers advocating for nuclear disarmament. Seated alongside them is Mrs. Anthony Greenwood, whose husband was also an influential speaker at this rally. Another prominent figure in the photograph is Mrs. Joseph McCullock, who stands as a symbol of resilience against nuclear weapons. Author Vera Brittain can also be seen among these passionate pacifists, lending her support to the cause for peace amidst the tense backdrop of the Cold War era. Their serious expressions reflect their commitment to ending nuclear proliferation and promoting global harmony. As they sit attentively in Trafalgar Square, listening intently to speeches condemning nuclear weapons, these women embody courage and determination in their fight for a safer world. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of their unwavering dedication to political activism and highlights their significant contribution to shaping history. The Memory Lane Prints collection preserves this iconic snapshot from an era marked by tension but fueled by hope for change – an enduring testament to humanity's pursuit of peace amid adversity.
