EDITORS COMMENTS
(The Hunt for German Submarines), a captivating photograph from 1918, showcases an intense moment during World War I as allied forces pursue a German U-boat. The aerial view, taken from "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" published by L'Illustration, Paris in 1924, reveals a German submarine in the act of diving beneath the surface, having been spotted by observant aviators. Swiftly, patrol boats converge on the scene, releasing depth charges to pinpoint the elusive underwater enemy. Traces of oil on the water's surface suggest a successful hit. This evocative image, filled with tension and determination, captures the essence of naval warfare during the First World War.
