September 1939: A Man's Resilience Amidst War - A poignant image of a determined farmer ploughing his field in Surrey, England, amidst the looming shadows of the Second World War. The farmer, dressed in work clothes and wearing a gas mask hanging from the handle of his plough, embodies the resilience and unwavering spirit of those who continued to work the land during these uncertain times. The Sphere, a popular British weekly magazine, captured this moment in history, highlighting the grim reality of life on the home front. With the threat of air raids and chemical warfare looming, farmers like this man adapted to the new normal, ensuring food production continued to sustain the nation. This powerful photograph serves as a reminder of the sacrifices and hardships endured during the early days of the Second World War.
