This photo print, titled "FVQ-F-118041-0000 Railway Bridge of Requigny bombed during World War I" takes us back in time to a significant moment in history. The image captures the devastating impact of war on infrastructure, specifically showcasing the destruction caused by bombing during World War I. The railway bridge stands as a solemn witness to the chaos and violence that engulfed societies during this tumultuous period.

Amidst the debris, we see remnants of tracks that were once bustling with life, connecting communities and facilitating trade.
