EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the aftermath of the bombing of Bergues, a small city in northern France, during the First World War. Dated between 1914 and 1915, the image depicts a group of people clearing debris from the corner of Place Gambetta, the city's central square. The destruction wrought by the bombs is evident in the rubble and wreckage that surrounds them. The once grand buildings that lined the square now lie in ruins, their facades reduced to piles of bricks and rubble. The people in the photograph work diligently to clear the area, likely making way for repairs and rebuilding efforts. The scene is a poignant reminder of the devastating impact of war on civilian populations and the resilience of communities in the face of such destruction. The photograph is part of The Roseries Collection at Mary Evans Picture Library, offering a unique glimpse into the wartime experiences of France during the First World War.
