The Zeppelin Bombardment of Antwerp in August, 1914 - A Defiance of the Hague Convention
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a haunting moment from the early days of World War I. On the night of 25/26 August, 1914, during the German invasion of Belgium, a Zeppelin airship unleashed its destructive power upon the city of Antwerp. In this aerial view, we witness the sheer devastation caused by this act of aggression. The image showcases not only the physical destruction but also highlights the violation of international law as it defies The Hague Convention. This historic event serves as a stark reminder that even in times when nations come together to establish rules for warfare, there are those who choose to disregard them. Amidst this chaos and destruction stands a church, symbolizing faith and resilience in times of adversity. It reminds us that even amidst war's darkest moments, humanity's spirit endures. The River Scheldt flows calmly through this scene while searchlights pierce through the darkness above. These beams represent hope and determination as they strive to uncover any signs of enemy presence. This photograph is part of "The War Illustrated Album De Luxe - Volume I" edited by J. A. Hammerton and published in London in 1915. It offers us an invaluable glimpse into one aspect of World War I history – an event that forever changed our world and shaped future conflicts.
