EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of pure joy and innocence amidst the turmoil of World War Two. Taken in Brockwell Park, near Herne Hill in south London during the first Christmas of the war in 1939, it shows a group of girls engaged in a spirited snowball fight. The winter landscape is blanketed in snow, creating a picturesque scene that belies the harsh realities of wartime Britain.
The girls' laughter and playful antics serve as a poignant reminder of the resilience and spirit of the British people during this challenging time. Despite the uncertainty and fear that hung over their country, these young girls found solace and camaraderie in simple pleasures like snowballing.
As they frolic in the cold December air, their breath visible against the icy backdrop, one can't help but be transported back to a bygone era when games like snowball fights were cherished traditions. This image not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to the enduring power of community and friendship even during times of great adversity.
In this historical snapshot from 1939, we are reminded that even amidst darkness, there is always light to be found - whether it's through innocent childhood games or moments shared with loved ones.
