EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the George Garland Collection, we are transported back to September 1939, a time of great upheaval and uncertainty. The image captures a poignant moment during the evacuation period, as a group of children find solace in nature's embrace at a spring in Petworth. Amidst the backdrop of lush countryside, these young evacuees have stumbled upon an unexpected treasure trove - blackberries ripe for picking. Their faces radiate joy and innocence as they delicately pluck the succulent fruits from their prickly vines. It is a heartwarming scene that serves as a reminder of resilience and hope even in times of adversity. The fashion choices of these children also offer glimpses into life during the 1940s. With their neatly pressed dresses, suspenders holding up trousers, and polished shoes, they exude an air of formality despite being surrounded by nature's wild beauty. These outfits speak volumes about societal norms and expectations prevalent during that era. This remarkable print not only documents history but also evokes emotions within us – nostalgia for simpler times and admiration for the strength displayed by those who lived through such challenging circumstances. Preserved by West Sussex Record Office under Ref No: Garland N18717, it stands as a testament to human resilience amidst turmoil
