Life through a zoom lens
Lockdowns left our cities deserted. But the absence of the usual hubbub allowed us to see them differently. Intrepid photographers were on hand to capture the beauty and humanity of the moment.
Signs of the times
Museums across the world are gathering the artefacts that will stand as symbols of the lockdown.
Night of terror
As this report of an air raid in 1940 London illustrates, life during wartime was very different from today: fragile, unforgiving and, at every moment, perilously close to its end.

Guiding light
At a time of global uncertainty, His All-Holiness Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew I explains how the Orthodox Church can mobilise, inspire and guide believers towards positive action in the world.
Missing in action
The suspension of global sport highlights the values it brings: camaraderie, team spirit and how being a lifelong supporter is a form of life support.
