This print captures the essence of World War II with its focus on a KAOEbelwagen dashboard. The Kubelwagen, manufactured by Volkswagen, served as Germany's versatile all-purpose vehicle during this tumultuous period, much like the iconic American Jeep. As we delve into the details of this image, our attention is immediately drawn to the prominent label on the dashboard that reads "Hochstgeschwindigkeit 70km", meaning "top speed 70km/h" in German. The significance of this label cannot be understated; it not only informs the driver about the maximum speed capability of this war machine but also serves as a reminder of how technology and engineering played crucial roles in warfare strategies during World War II. This simple yet powerful detail encapsulates both innovation and functionality within one frame. The black-and-white composition adds an air of nostalgia to the photograph, transporting us back in time to an era filled with turmoil and sacrifice. It allows us to reflect upon the countless individuals who relied on vehicles like these for transportation across treacherous terrains or even as makeshift ambulances during times of crisis. Morten Falch Sortland's masterful capture reminds us that history can be found not only in grand battle scenes but also in seemingly mundane objects such as dashboards. Through his lens, he immortalizes a piece of automotive history that symbolizes resilience and adaptability amidst chaos – a testament to human ingenuity even under dire circumstances.
