EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Memory Lane Prints takes us back to the era of World War Two and introduces us to Evelyn Elliott, a remarkable woman born in Sunderland. In 1946, at the tender age of 17, she joined the Women's Land Army as a Land Girl, dedicating herself to serving her country during these tumultuous times. The image captures Evelyn's unwavering determination and strength as she stands proudly amidst a vast farmland. The backdrop of rolling hills and fertile fields symbolizes both the challenges faced by those involved in agriculture during wartime and their crucial role in sustaining the nation. Evelyn's commitment to her duty is evident as we learn that she served until October 1950 when the Women's Land Army was disbanded. Her contribution alongside countless other women played an essential part in supporting food production efforts throughout this critical period. As we delve into this photograph further, it becomes apparent that it was taken on September 1st, 1996 – almost half a century after Evelyn's time as a Land Girl. This serves as a poignant reminder of how memories can be preserved through photography, allowing future generations to appreciate and honor those who selflessly served their country. In this one-of-a-kind image capturing an extraordinary moment from history, we witness not only Evelyn Elliott but also glimpse into an entire generation's resilience and sacrifice during World War Two.
