Beam Cloth Frame Framed Inscribed Mansard Piece Plaque Print Reads Topographical Ypres Made
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the haunting ruins of Ypres, a city in Belgium that was heavily damaged during the First World War. The image, dated 1918, shows the remnants of the once grand Cloth Hall, a historic building that was reduced to rubble during the conflict. The wooden frame surrounding the photograph adds an extra layer of significance to the image, as it is made from a piece of the very beam that once supported the Cloth Hall. The inscribed plaque on the frame, created by Paul Mansard, reads "This frame made from a piece of beam from the Cloth Hall, Ypres." The frame serves as a poignant reminder of the history and the destruction that the city endured during the war. The photograph, with its military and topographical elements, is a powerful historical document that transports us back in time to the aftermath of one of the most devastating conflicts in human history. The image is a poignant testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the enduring power of history.
