EDITORS COMMENTS
In the depths of the ocean, the sinking of a submarine is a harrowing experience, a testament to the ingenuity and resilience of those on board. This image from the Illustrated London News, published in 1954, showcases the latest methods of escape from a sunken submarine, as depicted by renowned illustrator G.H. Davis. At the center of the illustration, a cross-section view of a submarine reveals three potential escape routes. The first method, a rescue bell, is shown with a group of men clinging to it, ready to be hoisted to the surface by a waiting ship. The bell, a traditional and reliable means of escape, offers a sense of solidity and security in the face of the unknown. Another method, the one-man escape chamber, is shown in the lower left corner. This compact, spherical chamber allows a single person to survive for extended periods underwater, providing them with air and a means to communicate with the surface. The chamber's compact size and self-contained nature offer a sense of isolation and claustrophobia, but also a chance for survival in the most dire of circumstances. The third method, escape without the use of breathing apparatus, is depicted in the upper right corner. Two men are shown making their way to the surface, using their arms and legs to propel themselves upward through the water. The absence of breathing apparatus adds an element of danger and urgency to their escape, as they must rely on their physical strength and determination to reach the surface. This powerful image, with its intricate details and vivid colors, offers a glimpse into the world of submarine escape methods in the 1950s. The men in goggles and bubbles, the double-page spread, and the sense of urgency and hope all combine to create a captivating and thought-provoking visual representation of the human spirit's ability to adapt and survive in the face of adversity.
