The image showcases a group of jubilant women known as the Women's Royal Naval Service (WRNS), affectionately called Wrens, celebrating at Devonport Dockyard in Plymouth. The atmosphere depicted in this print is electric with joy and relief as these brave women embrace each other amidst the end of World War Two. Their beaming smiles and raised glasses capture their elation upon hearing the Commander's statement declaring victory and an end to years of conflict.
