EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the March of the Women Collection transports us back to the 1940s during World War II, showcasing a poignant illustration from The Girls Of Today. The image depicts a Naffy, a dedicated woman working at a canteen aimed at providing nourishment for armed forces servicemen.
In this snapshot of wartime life, we see the resilience and strength of women who played crucial roles in supporting the war effort. The Naffy symbolizes the unsung heroes who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure that those fighting on the front lines were well-fed and cared for.
The artist, Allan Burrows, captures not only the physical appearance of this Naffy but also her spirit and determination in serving others selflessly during such challenging times. This illustration serves as a reminder of the invaluable contributions made by women during WWII and highlights their often overlooked role in history.
As we reflect on this powerful image, let us pay tribute to all those brave women who stood shoulder-to-shoulder with men during one of humanity's darkest hours. Their legacy lives on as an inspiration for future generations to continue striving for equality and recognition for all individuals regardless of gender.
