EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the spirit of resilience and determination of women during the First World War, as young woman Lucy Auerbach takes a moment's rest at an open-air swimming pool in the picturesque village of Madresfield, Worcestershire. The year is 1915, and the First World War rages on the home front as well as the battlefields. In response to the urgent need for labor, women across England and Wales left their homes to work on farms and in factories, making significant contributions to the war effort. Lucy Auerbach spent three months in Madresfield, a rural idyll nestled near the Malvern Hills, where she dedicated herself to agricultural and dairy work. The image of her relaxed and contented expression, with the rolling fields and clear blue sky in the background, belies the hard labor she endured each day. Yet, it is a testament to the adaptability and fortitude of women during this period, who proved that they were more than capable of filling the gaps left by the men who had gone to fight. The 1910s were a time of great change for women in Britain, as they began to assert their independence and challenge traditional gender roles. This photograph offers a poignant reminder of the sacrifices and accomplishments of the women who answered the call to support their country during the First World War. The rural countryside, with its fields and open spaces, provided a stark contrast to the chaos and destruction of the battlefields, and the image of Lucy Auerbach, surrounded by nature, encapsulates the spirit of hope and perseverance that sustained the British people throughout the war.
