EDITORS COMMENTS
Un Zeppelin sur Paris: Un trou dans la voute du Metropolitain - exterior and interior of the breach; the second photograph taken after the removal of debris and the replacement of the twisted rail" is a poignant and evocative image from the First World War era, captured by the French photographer Gorce in 1916. The print, published in the French magazine "L'Illustration" in the volume CXLVII, documents the aftermath of a German air attack on Paris, specifically targeting the Metropolitain railway line. The first photograph in the series shows the exterior of the breach in the Metro tunnel caused by the bombardment. The image is a stark reminder of the devastation wrought by the war, with the twisted metal and debris scattered around the scene. The second photograph, taken after the cleanup effort, reveals the interior of the tunnel, which has been repaired and the rail tracks replaced. The desolation and destruction in the photograph are a metaphor for the larger conflict that was tearing Europe apart. The image also serves as a testament to the resilience and determination of the people of Paris, who continued to rebuild and restore their city despite the ongoing hostilities. The photograph captures the essence of the wartime experience, with the background people in the second image offering a glimpse into the daily life of Parisians during the First World War. The contrast between the before and after images underscores the destructive power of war and the human capacity for recovery and renewal. The print is a valuable historical document, providing insight into the impact of the First World War on Paris and the French people. It is a reminder of the sacrifices made during that time and the enduring spirit of those who lived through it.
