EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the haunting image of Strasbourg Cathedral during the final bombardment of the city in 1870, amidst the Franco-Prussian War. The towering medieval cathedral stands tall and proud, its intricate architecture a testament to centuries of religious devotion. During this tumultuous period, Strasbourg fell into Prussian hands, remaining part of Germany until it was eventually returned to France after the First World War. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the shifting borders and political turmoil that marked Europe during this time. The engraving beautifully portrays the exterior of Strasbourg Cathedral against a backdrop of destruction and chaos. Its monochrome tones evoke a sense of solemnity, emphasizing both the architectural grandeur and vulnerability in times of war. As one gazes upon this image, they are transported back to an era where religion played an integral role in society's fabric. The cathedral symbolizes not only Christian faith but also resilience in times of adversity. This historic print is a valuable artifact that allows us to reflect on our shared past and appreciate how conflicts shape our world.
