EDITORS COMMENTS
L'Attaque Navale de Zeebrugge et Ostende; A Zeebrugge: Schema de l'Attaque, 1918" is a captivating photograph from the first world war era, showcasing an aerial view of the Zeebrugge and Ostende harbors in Belgium during the Zeebrugge Raid. The image is taken from "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" published by L'Illustration, Paris, in 1924. The photograph provides a birds-eye perspective of the harbor, revealing the strategic layout of the British naval attack on the German U-boat bases located in these Belgian ports. The image is a schema or plan of the assault, highlighting the key locations and movements of the British Royal Navy during the raid. The photograph captures the chaos and intensity of the naval battle, with numerous ships and boats visible in the harbor, some engaged in fierce shell fire against each other. Smoke rises from the water, indicating the presence of explosions, likely from the detonation of mines or torpedoes. The image also reveals the transport of troops and supplies to the attack sites, showcasing the intricacy and coordination required for such a military operation. The Zeebrugge Raid was a significant event during the Atlantic U-boat campaign of World War I. The British Royal Navy launched the assault on May 23, 1918, to destroy the German U-boat bases in the Belgian ports of Zeebrugge and Ostende. The raid was successful in damaging the German U-boats and disrupting their operations, contributing to the eventual Allied victory in the war. The photograph is a testament to the military strategy and naval warfare of the time, providing a unique perspective on a pivotal moment in world history. Despite the image being of unknown origin, its historical significance is undeniable, making it an essential addition to any collection of World War I memorabilia.
