EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a haunting moment in history - the devastating fire that engulfed the Palace of Justice in Ghent, Belgium. The Palais de Justice, once an architectural masterpiece, was tragically reduced to ashes on the fateful day of 19th March 1926. The image showcases the sheer destruction caused by this catastrophic event. The grandeur and elegance that once defined this iconic structure are now replaced with charred remnants and crumbling walls. It serves as a poignant reminder of how even the most majestic landmarks can succumb to nature's wrath. The monochrome composition adds a sense of timelessness to the photograph, transporting us back to an era between two world wars - Europe's tumultuous 1920s. This rare glimpse into history allows us to reflect upon not only the loss suffered by Ghent but also on humanity's resilience in rebuilding after such devastation. Preserved by Central News, this photograph stands as a testament to their commitment in capturing significant moments for posterity. As we gaze at this image, we cannot help but marvel at its historical significance and appreciate its inclusion within Europeana Photography
