EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting photograph captures the remnants of the German zeppelin L20, also known as the "Lusitania," lying destroyed in the Hafsfjord of Norway in May 1916. The image is titled "Trois Zeppelins detruits en trois jours. Le 'L20' dans un fjord de Norvege; L'épave du zeppelin L20 flottant au gre des vents au milieu du Hafsfjord, le 3 mai 1916" ("Three Zeppelins Destroyed in Three Days. The Wreck of Zeppelin L20 in a Fjord of Norway, May 3, 1916"). The exact creator of this poignant image remains unknown, but it was published in the French magazine "L'Illustration" during World War I, specifically in the issue covering January, February, March, April, May, and June of 1916. The L20 was one of three German zeppelins shot down by the British during the early stages of the First World War. This photograph serves as a stark reminder of the destructive power of aerial warfare during this time. The image shows the wreckage of the L20, which appears to be floating in the fjord, battered by the winds. The black and white tones add to the somber mood, emphasizing the devastation and loss. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the human cost of war and the technological advancements that were used to wage it. The L20, like many other zeppelins of the era, represented a new form of transportation and military capability. Its destruction in the Hafsfjord serves as a reminder of the unintended consequences of war and the destructive power of technology.
