During this
month of Remembrance the Archives of Ontario turns its focus on
the children who are helplessly caught in the middle of any armed
conflict.
This exhibit highlights the artwork created by a group of children
who, over half a century ago, unwittingly found their lives uprooted
by the onset of the Spanish Civil War.
Like
the artwork, the photographic images in this exhibit are from the
Alexander Albert MacLeod fonds
and remind us of both the frailty and the resilience of children
during times of adversity. |
