EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures a chilling moment in history during the China-Japan War of 1932. As the Japanese forces bombard Shanghai, residents are seen fleeing in panic, desperate to escape the destruction and chaos unfolding around them.
The image is a stark reminder of the horrors of war and the impact it has on innocent civilians caught in the crossfire. The fear and urgency on the faces of those fleeing speak volumes about the devastation being wrought upon their city.
The juxtaposition of everyday life - with people going about their business before being forced to run for safety - serves as a poignant reminder of how quickly life can be upended by conflict.
Through this photograph, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the terror and uncertainty faced by those living through this tumultuous period in history. It serves as a somber reflection on the human cost of war and reminds us to never forget the sacrifices made by those who have endured such hardships.
Mary Evans Picture Library has preserved this important historical moment for future generations to learn from and remember. It stands as a testament to both the resilience of humanity in times of crisis and our collective responsibility to strive for peace and understanding amidst turmoil.
