EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the exterior of Saint Eloi Church in Dunkirk, France, during the tumultuous years of the First World War (1914-1916). The image bears the scars of the relentless bombing that ravaged the city during the conflict. The once grand Gothic architecture of the church, with its intricate lathwork and towering spire, now lies in ruins. The roof, reduced to a mound of debris, exposes the raw interior of the building. The pavement in the foreground is cracked and littered with debris, while the fence surrounding the church is twisted and bent. The laths that once adorned the walls are now scattered haphazardly, a poignant reminder of the destruction wrought by the war. The tower, a symbol of the city's resilience, remains standing but is far from unscathed. The image offers a glimpse into the devastating impact of war on the built environment and the lives of those who called this place home. This photograph is part of The Roseries Collection at Mary Evans Picture Library and serves as a powerful testament to the indelible mark left by the First World War on the cityscape of Dunkirk.
