In announcing the success of the exhibition to the Press, the President said: “Most photographers with entries in the exhibition had been carrying on since the war began with what materials they had at the outbreak. The public was particularly receptive nowadays to any reminder that behind all the turmoil and chaos of war there still existed a love of the beautiful which always did and always would persistently assert itself”.
