EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of camaraderie and support among a group of young women during a Physical Education class in the 1940s. The image, titled 'Girls hands on shoulders,' is a poignant reminder of the importance of community and connection in the context of education. The scene is set in a college or school, as indicated by the formal attire of the students and the presence of a physical education instructor in the background. The girls, dressed in matching gym uniforms, stand in a semi-circle, with their hands on each other's shoulders. Their expressions are focused and determined, reflecting the intensity of their workout. Physical Education was an essential component of the curriculum in schools and colleges during this era, with a strong emphasis on promoting health, fitness, and teamwork. The girls in this photograph are likely engaged in an exercise designed to build strength, coordination, and unity. Despite the challenges and hardships of the 1940s, including the ongoing Second World War, education continued to be a priority for young people. The image of these girls supporting one another, both physically and emotionally, is a testament to the resilience and determination of the student body during this historical period. This photograph, taken from the extensive archive of Mary Evans Prints Online, is a valuable historical resource that provides insight into the experiences of girls in education during the 1940s. It is a reminder of the enduring importance of community, friendship, and support in the context of learning and personal growth.
