The Blitz in England lasted from 1940 - 41and focussed mainly on London as well as smaller industrial cities such a Coventry. This photo shows the London skyline during an air raid in December 1940. The silhouette of St Pauls Cathedral is instantly recogniseable. Remarkably St Pauls remained intact during WW2 even though it was hit several times and the area around it was largely destroyed.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "London Skyline 29/12/40 W101 Box 57" takes us back to the harrowing days of the Blitz in England. Lasting from 1940 to 1941, this devastating period primarily targeted London and other industrial cities like Coventry. The image captures a chilling moment during an air raid in December 1940. As we gaze upon the London skyline, our eyes are immediately drawn to the iconic silhouette of St Paul's Cathedral. Despite being hit multiple times, this magnificent structure miraculously remained intact while its surroundings were reduced to rubble. A symbol of resilience amidst chaos, St Paul's stands tall as a testament to the indomitable spirit of Londoners during World War II. The photograph evokes a sense of awe and reverence for those who endured unimaginable hardships during this tumultuous time in history. It serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by ordinary people caught up in extraordinary circumstances. George Greenwell skillfully captured this historic moment with his lens, preserving it for future generations to reflect upon and remember. This print from Memory Lane Prints allows us to step into the past and witness firsthand the courage and strength displayed by those living through one of humanity's darkest chapters – Y2K WW2 Weby DTGU2.
