  • St Paul's Survives is a famous photograph taken in London during the night raid of 29/30 December 1940, the 114th night of the Blitz of World War II. In the early hours of Monday morning, photographer Herbert Mason positioned on the roof of the Daily Mail building on Tudor Street, just off Fleet Street, took this image of St Paul's Cathedral surrounded by the smoke of burning buildings. The photograph became a symbol of British resilience and courage, and is considered one of the most iconic images of the Blitz. During the raid when the photograph was shot, more than 160 people died, over 500 were injured, and hundreds of buildings were destroyed in what became known as the Second Great Fire of London.
