EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the chaos and destruction of an air raid over London during World War I, as viewed from the iconic Trafalgar Square. At the heart of the image stands Nelson's Column, a symbol of resilience and strength in the face of adversity, surrounded by the blue and white lights of the city's buildings, some still standing, others in ruins. The photograph was taken by Private George Barrow, a soldier from the 6th Battalion of the Oxford & Bucks Light Infantry, formerly of the Royal Berkshire Regiment. Born in Bermondsey, he enlisted in Camberwell and lived in Kennington before making the ultimate sacrifice on active service on August 31, 1917. His grave can be found at the Mendinghem Military Cemetery in Poperinge, West-Flaanderen, Belgium (Grave Reference Va14). The topographical detail in this photograph is striking, with the familiar landmarks of Trafalgar Square providing a sense of place and context. The image is a poignant reminder of the devastating impact of war on civilians and soldiers alike, and serves as a testament to the bravery and resilience of those who lived through it. This photograph is part of the Mary Evans Prints Online collection, which offers a wealth of historical images for research and educational purposes. It is a valuable resource for those studying the history of the First World War, the topographical records of London, and the experiences of soldiers during wartime.
