EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting print captures a devastating moment in history - the bombing of Paris by the Gothas during World War I in 1918. The image shows the destruction and chaos that ensued as the city was under attack, with buildings damaged and smoke rising into the sky.
The sight of German aircraft flying over Paris, dropping bombs on its streets, is both terrifying and surreal. The people below must have felt helpless as they witnessed their beloved city being torn apart before their eyes.
Despite the devastation, there is a sense of curiosity in this photograph. People are seen looking up at the planes, perhaps trying to make sense of what is happening or simply unable to tear their eyes away from the spectacle above.
This image serves as a reminder of the horrors of war and the impact it has on innocent civilians caught in the crossfire. It also highlights the resilience of Parisians who continued to carry on with their daily lives amidst such destruction.
As we reflect on this historical moment captured in black and white, let us remember those who lost their lives during this tragic event and strive for peace so that future generations may never have to experience such devastation again.
