EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting image captures the devastating impact of war on a small French village during the First World War. The aerial view shows the village in ruins, with bomb craters scattered throughout the landscape, evidence of the continuous barrage of artillery fire it endured. This photograph is part of a series of British aerial reconnaissance images that meticulously recorded the positions of trenches on the Western Front in 1918.
The photo provides a stark reminder of the destruction and devastation caused by conflict, as buildings lay in rubble and fields are scarred by warfare. The bird's eye perspective offers a unique insight into the scale of destruction that was wrought upon this once peaceful community.
