EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 1940s, amidst the chaos of World War II. The image showcases Wroxton St. Mary near Banbury, specifically focusing on the historic Wroxton Abbey. Once a magnificent Jacobean house, it now serves as the base for an evacuated London firm's staff. The photograph captures a moment in time when war forced people from their homes and into unfamiliar territories. In this case, women from the evacuated firm have found solace within the walls of Wroxton Abbey. Their resilience and determination shine through their faces as they navigate through uncertain times. Wroxton Abbey stands tall in defiance against the backdrop of conflict, symbolizing hope and strength during these trying years. Its grandeur offers a sense of stability to those who seek refuge within its walls. As we reflect upon this poignant image, let us remember all those who were affected by World War II - both soldiers fighting on distant battlefields and civilians uprooted from their homes. This print serves as a powerful reminder of our shared history and highlights the indomitable spirit that emerged during one of humanity's darkest periods. "Bunting" has beautifully captured this snapshot in time, allowing us to glimpse into an era defined by sacrifice, resilience, and unwavering unity in face of adversity.
