EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from July 1943, we are transported back to the heart of World War II on the home front. Mrs Annie Blackaby stands tall in the midst of her own family's farm, located in Riverhall, Essex. With a determined expression on her face, she takes charge of the roll call for not only her own children but also those belonging to the Evacull Family who sought refuge at Park Gate Farm. This image encapsulates both the resilience and unity that defined families during these tumultuous times. As bombs fell and uncertainty loomed over their lives, Mrs Blackaby ensured that every child under her care was accounted for and safe. The backdrop of lush green fields serves as a stark contrast to the harsh realities faced by these families during wartime. The photo is a poignant reminder of how agriculture played an essential role in sustaining communities amidst global conflict. It captures a snapshot of childhood innocence disrupted by war but also showcases moments where love and protection triumphed over adversity. Decades later, this print from Mirrorpix allows us to reflect upon our shared history and appreciate the sacrifices made by ordinary individuals like Mrs Annie Blackaby who selflessly cared for others during one of humanity's darkest chapters – World War II.
