EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial photograph, taken on September 30, 1917, provides a haunting view of the extensive damage inflicted on the Ypres district in Belgium during the First World War. The image, captured by British reconnaissance, reveals a vast expanse of shell holes scattered across the landscape. The once lush fields, dotted with buildings and roads, have been transformed into a desolate and pockmarked terrain. The remnants of structures can be seen peeking out from the craters, offering a stark reminder of the destruction wrought by the relentless shelling and bombing that occurred during the conflict. The image, taken from the air, offers a unique perspective on the devastation that the Western Front endured during this pivotal period in world history. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the immense sacrifice and loss experienced by the people of Belgium and the soldiers who fought in the Great War.
