Description | A-bomb Drawings by Survivors [Artist's comments]Summarized Still holding her child The sound of a wailing infant drew us to a large willow tree. The woman had probably sought shelter under the tree to nurse her baby. While cradling her child and offering it her breast, she had died. Mother and I did not know what to do. We tore ourselves away from the scene and kept going. August 7 1,650m / near Tsurumi Bridge Hiroko Imanaka |
