This print captures a poignant moment in history during World War I. The image showcases a diverse group of individuals, united by their shared experiences at the S. R. I. 3rd Northern General Hospital. Located in Sheffield, this hospital played a crucial role in caring for war casualties and patients from 1915 to 1918.
