EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph showcases the awe-inspiring power of the giant German Paris gun known as Big Bertha during World War I. The artwork, created by an anonymous German School artist in the 20th century, captures the essence of this formidable weapon that struck fear into the hearts of its enemies. Big Bertha was renowned for its ability to bombard Paris from a staggering distance of over 60 miles. This incredible range allowed it to rain destruction upon unsuspecting targets with devastating accuracy. As depicted in the print, this massive field gun stood tall amidst a dense forest, camouflaged and ready to unleash its deadly payload. The image not only highlights Big Bertha's immense size but also emphasizes its significance in shaping the course of warfare during the Great War. With artillery being a crucial aspect of combat strategy at that time, this supergun played a pivotal role in Germany's military operations. The lithograph serves as a testament to both technological advancements and human ingenuity witnessed during World War I. It immortalizes an era where weaponry reached unprecedented levels and forever changed how wars were fought. Displayed proudly within private collections today, this print offers viewers a glimpse into history—a reminder of the extraordinary weapons employed on both sides during one of humanity's darkest chapters.
