EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to 1939 with this print of the illustrated WW2 music sheet cover for "Goodnight Children Everywhere." Written and composed by Gaby Rogers and Harry Phillips, this hauntingly beautiful image features a silhouetted form of a young evacuee praying at his bedside.
During World War II, music played an important role in boosting morale and providing comfort to those affected by the conflict. This particular piece was even featured and broadcast by the legendary Gracie Fields in France, adding to its historical significance.
The attention to detail in this illustration is truly remarkable, capturing the innocence and vulnerability of a child caught up in the chaos of war. The evocative imagery transports us back to a time when bedtime prayers were not just routine but also carried deep meaning and hope for a better tomorrow.
As we gaze upon this poignant scene, we are reminded of the sacrifices made by so many during wartime and the resilience shown by children everywhere. This print serves as a powerful reminder of our shared history and the enduring spirit that helped people through even the darkest times.
