En plongee - le coup de periscope; le sous-marin fuit, apres avoir attaque
EDITORS COMMENTS
(Diving: view through a periscope; as a submarine flees, after attack), is a captivating and evocative pencil drawing by the renowned French artist, Alexis De Broca. Created in 1916, during the height of the First World War, this monochromatic masterpiece is a testament to the artist's exceptional skill in capturing the essence of naval warfare. The image portrays a solitary figure, likely a submarine commander, intently peering through a periscope. The submarine, a symbol of the cutting-edge technology of the time, has just executed an attack and is now swiftly fleeing the scene. The tense expression on the man's face, the beads of sweat on his brow, and the determined set of his jaw, convey the high-stakes nature of the underwater battle. The drawing is part of the "Collection de la Guerre IV. L'Illustration Tome CXLVIII. La Guerre Juillet, Aout, Septembre, Octobre, Novembre, Decembre 1916" (Collection of the Fourth War. The Illustration Volume CXLVIII. The War July, August, September, October, November, December 1916), a publication that documented the major events of the First World War as they unfolded. The image is a powerful representation of the human element in the midst of the chaos and destruction of war. The use of black and white pencil adds to the sense of drama and intensity, as well as highlighting the intricacies of the drawing. The interior setting, with its dimly lit, cramped space, further emphasizes the isolation and focus of the submarine commander. Overall, "En plongee: le coup de periscope; le sous-marin fuit, apres avoir attaque" is a compelling work of art that transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the world of the submarine warfare during the First World War.
