History
RECOVERY:
1942
Left Children suffered cruelly. The diary of Tanya Savicheva, an 1 1year-old Leningrad schoolgirl, recorded the deaths of her family one by one. Many children were orphaned and were looked after in children's homes.
Right Traffic was a rare sight during Leningrad's winter. Children's sledges appeared, conveying the feeble, the dying and the dead. This street scene shows a bulletin board, which listed articles for sale and barter and family news. The bulletin board was a prominent feature of the Leningrad blockade.
Left General Kirill Meretskov decorates a very young Red Army soldier. Meretskov, who commanded the Volkov Front, launched a premature attack south of Leningrad in January 1942. His troops were dispersed, untrained and badly supplied. This failed attempt to lift the Leningrad blockade was followed by the subsequent tragedy of Vlasov's 2nd Shock Army.
Overleaf Leningrad had survived the terrible winter of 1941-42. With the spring came the big clean-up. Meagre rations were supplemented by vegetables grown on any available plot like this one in front of the Isaakievsky Sobor (St. Isaac's Cathedral). But the high death rate due to the blockade persisted.
