Popis:
People salvage items from the ruins of their homes near the Vistula River after German air raids during the siege of Warsaw in September 1939. A young boy, Zygmunt Askienow, with his rescued pet canary among the ruins of his home.
In the words of photographer Julien Bryan,
- "Not far from the center of town a bomb had hit an apartment house and exposed the first, second, and third floors. A boy was walking dazedly back and forth carrying the one possession he had found -- a canary in its cage. He walked up and down over a pile of stones and bricks. Under the pile there were nine or ten bodies, so the neighbors told us, not yet recovered." [Source: Bryan, Julien. "Warsaw 1939 Siege, 1959 Warsaw Revisited. p. 24"]
