In this print titled "A Polish Wedding - October 1946" we are transported back to a moment of joy and celebration amidst the aftermath of World War II. The bride and groom, beaming with happiness, sit at the center of attention surrounded by their friends. What strikes us immediately is the small white bow adorning each friend's attire, symbolizing unity and solidarity on this special occasion. The men proudly wear their Polish military uniforms, a testament to their bravery and sacrifice during the war. As allies in the fight for peace, these soldiers embody resilience and hope for a brighter future. Their presence serves as a reminder that love can triumph even in times of adversity. The bouquet held by the radiant bride adds an element of femininity to this powerful image. It represents new beginnings, growth, and promises made between two souls embarking on a lifelong journey together. Preserved within the George Garland Collection at West Sussex Record Office Ref. , this photograph captures not only a personal milestone but also reflects broader historical significance. It stands as an enduring tribute to all those who fought valiantly for freedom during one of humanity's darkest chapters
