EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a powerful moment in history during the Second World War. In the midst of destruction and chaos, two members of the home guard stand tall, silhouetted against the backdrop of a blitzed building at Lime Street Railway Station in Liverpool, Merseyside. The date was September 27th, 1942. The image evokes a sense of resilience and determination as these brave individuals protect their city amidst the ravages of war. Their figures are shrouded in darkness but their presence is undeniable - symbols of strength amidst adversity. The devastation caused by bombings can be seen all around them; remnants of fire and conflict serve as haunting reminders of the challenges faced during this tumultuous period. Yet, even amid such destruction, hope remains alive within these courageous men. This photograph transports us back to an era where ordinary citizens became heroes overnight, defending their homes and communities with unwavering resolve. It serves as a poignant reminder that even in our darkest moments, humanity has an incredible capacity for bravery and unity. Preserved through time by Ball's lens, this print offers us a glimpse into history - an enduring testament to those who fought valiantly on British soil during World War Two.
