EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures the devastating aftermath of a tragic event that unfolded on the Promenade des Anglais in Nice, France. The image reveals bullet impacts scattered across a heavy truck, serving as haunting reminders of the horrifying incident that occurred just hours earlier. The day before this photograph was taken, on July 14th, scores of people were joyously celebrating Bastille Day when tragedy struck. The truck plowed into a crowd at high speed, mercilessly taking innocent lives and shattering the festive atmosphere. The close-up shot showcases multiple bullet holes piercing through the vehicle's exterior, evidence of the violence that unfolded. As we examine this damaged truck up close, its windscreen is visibly dirty and shattered glass litters its surface. A creative use of perspective allows us to see how even the windscreen wiper has been affected by this act of destruction. Eric Gaillard's poignant image serves as a stark reminder of the fragility and vulnerability we face in our daily lives. It encapsulates both sorrow and resilience - a testament to human strength in times of adversity
